Sure but we should still improve UX
The UX the way it currently is filters out non tech savvy people, so we mostly end up with tech savvy people here.

Why April 16th?
Exactly.
UX is like a Joke, if you need to explain it to someone it's bad UX
Two things can be true at the same time.
Yes reddit doesn't care about their users.
But also the old reddit is worse for the vast majority of people
How old are you?
We should do both.
Give people a good UX, and build solid communities.
Having a barrier to entry just filters out non tech savvy people, and creates a bubble.
We want all kinds of people on Lemmy, not just tech savvy people.
That is a UX issue.
UX is like a Joke, if you need to explain it to someone, it's a bad Joke/UX
The UI is fine, you can use Photon or other modern UI's
The UX is the problem (User Experience), the defaults just suck and many will give up before even knowing better UI's exist, or finding the right settings to make the default UI work for them.
Just picking a instance is intimidating and many will give up before that, we should guide them to pick an instance or choose a default and give them the option to change.
How old are those friends of yours?
Whether or not we want mass adoption I can't say, but what we don't want is to have a filter that only tech savvy people get past.
We want all kinds of people on Lemmy, not just tech savvy people that push through the bad UX
And? We want all kinds of people on Lemmy not just 'skilled' people
