Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.

What can we do?

    we can redesign the on onboarding process.

    🛑 stop explaining new terms 🛑 fuck infinite list of random names with anime girls (what do you want me to do,read!?)

    Make it like a map and turn instances into buildings (or gardens/circle/doesnt matter). Show some stats like how big, who i can talk to, topic. Gamify the experience so the fatigue turns into curiousity.

      I do like the idea of a map.

      We have colonized the Internet it’s probably about time we start making a map for those that follow.
