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

What can we do?

    The average user that will get to join-lemmy will GTFO.

    The average user gets their Google account by opening their device and going step by step with nice animations.

    Find a person that already has an apartment, bills, work, relationship and isn’t working in tech.

    A. Ask him to join lemmy. Ask after a month if it happened (spoiler, it didn’t). B. Help him open an account, check after he month if he kept it.
