Whenever barrier to entry is discussed for lemmy, and reducing confusion for different servers is brought up, all of the isolationist comments come out of the woodwork.

Apparently redditors who are too dumb to register should stay on reddit?

We have a platform that seems to be working and slowly growing. Shouldnt we want good defaults in place to give the best possible experience with minimal user effort?

    Lemmy.world users, and maybe other instances.

    Its not about demanding new features from people who volunteer their time and money, its about the community being understood and maybe having some consesus about what we’d like to see because i do imagine the people who manage this instance care about what users want.

    And its nice to talk about these things directly instead of having people speaking for the instance in a hundred conflicting ways in random posts.

      Broader adoption of lemmy ensures more longevity, and likely better, more diverse development. Ignore the haters. Everyone was new here at some point and the last thing we should do is pull up the ladder behind us.

      Change is good. Change is life. People who oppose change for its own sake are in favor of stagnation.

      I’m one of those, and km not against it.

      Seems like a pretty tiny minority you’re talking about.
