Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy

Unfortunately, Sync for Lemmy is basically dead. Hasn't been updated in nearly a year. I'm currently looking for a good alternative

makes me think of people who say they don't like tofu. (tofu is a protein sponge that tastes like whatever you soak/cook it in)

Absolutely! Growth is important and not every possible community is mirrored on the fediverse. But if anything this is all the more reason for interpersonal connections to drive new user growth. That will naturally help filter users to instances they align with. I’m considering going so far as to host an instance specifically for my geographical area to really lean into the idea of a “local” internet.

Same vibe as Cato in the Roman Senate: ml delenda est

Serious question here: what is the bad ux experience of lemmy compared to reddit? (except choosing an instance in the beginning, I get that this might turn off a lot of people)

Lemmy desperately needs to get rid of toxicity of this kind.
It has become a more hostile place, and this negatively affects the experience for everyone, including the OGs.
And yes, if you want to have more lively conversations, you need more people. If you need more people, you should stop calling them morons and help them figure it out in baby steps. Don't make it harder than it already is.

You can experience each server before making an account, you just can't post or subscribe. If someone is afraid of creating am account on an instance they may not like (which if I'm being honest is a slightly strange worry, as it costs nothing to sign up, and they can delete the account if they don't like it), they can spend as much time lurking without an account as they need.

It's up to you, I was just giving you the option

Only if you want top 10 instances.
sopuli.xyz and discuss.online both defederate hexbear and lemmygrad, are reliable and established
They are my recommendations nowadays

What can we do?
More flaming about tankies and .ml that will help.
ABSTRACT AWAY THE FEDERATION!
