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

MODERATORS
I assumed (probably incorrectly) that users would be visiting Lemmy via apps, so the UX would depend on which app they used.
I don't know. I have a soft spot for Lemmy. The interactions here seem more genuine less about updoots.
While not necessarily about the upvotes I find the users here are still very much about being _Right_™ or trying to be the most liked and therefore the most conformed to their community.
The updoots may not matter but people for sure act like they do or want them to.
