Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy

You don't even have to sign up to view posts or comments.

Maybe I’m more tech oriented than many, but I don’t find federation confusing at all. I’ve never understood why it’s described that way.
-
Every other post is some worldist idiot whining about ml
-
Um… okay, if the fairly mainstream for our demographic politics here repels certain people, good.
-
So Lemmy is filtering out people who can’t take 5 minutes to understand a simple concept and make a decision?
-
What I don’t get is why not pretend it’s centralized and just recommend a server when you introduce someone to lemmy instead of trying to teach them?
Oh you want an alternative to Reddit, here, go to lemmy.ca since your Canadian.

I seriously have no idea what you’re talking about.

Honestly, joining a community just for the type of content they have or what they filter is useless. Best approach for me is to have access to everything and then filter what you don't like by yourself.

Am used to New Reddit UX (2020-2022ish) but i still like this tbh.

Even the NFL one, the front page of posts the most comments is 10.

Discoverability is a serious issue on Lemmy. I'd wager there's a shitload of people here interested in the big US sports, but unless you know where the community is (and there's often multiple, and sometimes on instances you're not linked to), you're not going to see it.
There's just not enough users for any algorithm pushing of obscure communities you might be interested in either.

tbf a lot of people here don't know how to code, or even where to start if they do

"retention bots" of some description wouldn't surprise me in the slightest..
