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

What can we do?

    Yea but imo that’s part of the problem. I use sync because it makes it easy, but I’ve tried to figure out how to access lemmy on desktop and it’s non-trivial (I still haven’t bothered to figure it out, I’ve given up multiple times)

      Copy past that into your browser, then log in with your username and password?

      I’m not very tech savvy compared to a lot of Lemmings but I’m definitely above average. So I’m not trying to throw shade, just trying to help. The more people who get the hang of things is the more people who can teach others how to do it.

        There reportedly are some slowness issues for people in the USA, where most Redditors would be coming from? Perhaps the updates currently in progress and still planned will help.
