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

What can we do?

    I’m working on a lemmy app. Will be UI focused!

      I mean, there’s already apps that are good that were created by reddit app developers. E.g. Boost for Lemmy. The problem isn’t the apps, it’s the availability of content and people. The /r/orioles on reddit has 85,163 subscribers. 110 people on the page right now. /c/Baltimore_Orioles here has 150 subscribers and no posts in 4 months which was a bot posted game thread with 0 comments on it. The problem is meaningful content and people to interact with, not the UI. There’s no reason to join if you want to talk sports because there’s no on to talk sports with. I’m not going to sit in game threads by myself and post my thoughts to no one.
