For those that weren't there for the mastadon growth, it came is several waves. the reddit blackout begins tomorrow 6/12. Are the Lemmy sysadmins expecting a second wave of growth? If so how big?

I predict a very small number sticking around though. Layouts and instances are a little too unintuitive.

I hope that the ones sticking up are attracted to the idea, grossed out by the unintuitiveness, competent and willing to contribute. Then hopefully it'll get better.

I am going to try and stick with Lemmy as a new user. Hopefully others do as well

depends on the mods and admins for that one. Most don't seem very accommodating to new users.

Still much easier to use than the garbage official Reddit app.

Reddit was unintuitive to start as well, and had a pretty rough UI in its starting years but those are just growing pains and hopefully we will see the same with Lemmy as well.

We should roll out a new v4 UI for them
