Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.

What can we do?

    My point is you have to pick SOME server to host your account. You are right that most communities are accessible from most servers, but that is where it becomes confusing for someone who just wants to look at memes for a specific fan base.

      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.
