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

What can we do?

    I think this is the current best solution, Voyager does the same but defaults to lemm.ee, I point people there.

      Is that a pretty smooth onboarding if we just simply tell people to download Voyager? I remember having to choose a server to log in on, which could trip people up. Does it just choose lemm.ee for you now? How long does it take for account approval on lemm.ee (another thing that seems to trip people up)? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to see how idiot proof this is lol. Would be great if we could just say -Download this app and follow the prompts!
