Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.
What can we do?

I like new reddit. It works well, I just wish I could keep it the same as it is. I HATE Lemmy desktop UI and nearly went back to Reddit because of it. Voyager for mobile and photon for desktop. Honestly photon for both might be better but I'm apparently the 1% of people on Lemmy that actually prefer an app over a website ๐คทโโ๏ธ
A lot of users here prefer a desktop environment that's only command line.
Apparently wanting even a GUI puts you in a minority on Lemmy.
