Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.
What can we do?
I was on Sync for Reddit before going here, and checked out Lemmy as the devs switched platform. So the joke’s on them, my UX is basically identical.
That said, sucks that people shy away because of complexity.
The UX for both Voyager and Sync seem really good. I’ve tried it out on a device, you can scroll before logging in, and when you try to create an account there aren’t loops to jump through and a default instance is pre-selected
Voyager is just Apollo for Lemmy is why I use it
Unfortunately, Sync for Lemmy is basically dead. Hasn’t been updated in nearly a year. I’m currently looking for a good alternative
Thanks for the heads up, seems like it might stop functioning properly in the future according to posts on the Sync community. Guess I’ll look around for some alternative in case that happens.
