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

What can we do?

Lemmy doesn't need low bar registrations. Lemmy will grow slowly without the immaturities and the to pompous class.

People will build apps and make lemmy more "fun"

Corporate social media is easy because it keeps the ad clickers there. Do we really want that environment here?

All the quality (non bait clicking content suppliers) will come here and all the spam artists will stay over there.

Just let Lemmy grow organically with a little barrier to climb and we'll be alright
