Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.
What can we do?
The problem is that in order to become a proper reddit replacement Lemmy needs enough users to create niche communities.
There are plenty of active communities related to technology and politics but there is no equivalent to r/batmanarkham or r/letgirlshavefun.
Plus there are plenty of communities that are all but abandoned. We need more people to actually be a proper forum.
Ppl gotta stop saying stuff like this and spend their energy posting and making those communtiies instead, comment in new and growing communities, post in them at least subscribe and upvote/downvote, do something other than just complain (more of a blanket statement, than at you)
Doing a 1/1 recreation of niche communities from reddit is a fools errand. Let communities develop on their own, or even better, simply federate existing communities.
