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

It's a solved problem. Check out phtn.app and vger.app also Alexandrite, Next and Tesseract. Like the problem is solved 5 times over.
Alexandrite is honestly great. Made the experience much better. Just wish I could have it open links in a separate tab.
Unless we use one of those as the default UI, the problem isn't solved, people will give up before knowing of their existence.
You can literally just share phtn.app and say its how you use the threadiverse/lemmy, it doesnt need to be hosted on a site with the same lemmy instance you can login to any account through these frontends
Tell it to the hosts.
