Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy
-
"feels like old reddit" is a weird way to say "it feels like new reddit, but doesn't leak ram, doesn't take as much or more processing power as AI does to run, and interjects ads randomly into the feeds"
-
it's confusing from the perspective of choice paralysis, ultimately you can just make a new account and move to another instance if you really don't like the one you're on.

oh shit that's awesome almost makes me want to not use sync anymore

Yeah, true. But that’s cool. Having choice like that is great!
But I suppose that’s the issue. Trying to keep signup simple to help drive user engagement. How much do you try to wrap someone’s head around such nuanced differences, and when do you say “just join me on my instance”?

Quality content as usual. I appreciate the thought you've put into this and agree with your reasoning.

In their defense, the reddit UI did suck and the webpage was barely functional for a very, very long time. How many years did it take them to get video to be even passably functional?
Almost every Lemmy interface is an order of magnitude better than anything reddit has ever managed to produce. Voyager is a pleasure imo.

Likewise, lol. A little friction keeps the chaff out.

It's closer to that yes, and you don't really know whar a football team is

Yeah like. I want a large community and stuff but. The idea of a new Reddit preferring community is weirdly repellent.
I really don’t want to hate on their preferences but also holy shit.
