This reddit post likely has tens if not hundreds of thousands of views, look at the top comment.

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

What can we do?

Even worse, the Tankies are basically running the landing page that asks them which instance to join.

We should probably make a non-tankie version and get it trending for the Algorithm.

Yep. I came, couldn't get into it, https://lemmy.world/post/1388830 and unfortunately went back to Reddit.

Nowadays, [email protected] has daily threads promoting active communities

Also what client where you using for that screenshot? Clients usually show instances after the communities name

Boost. That was 1 year ago. It now shows the server as well

Is this a poll result or an opinion? Because I like the Lemmy UX a lot better than reddit. I appreciate the single-page-app approach. But I use a PC, seems like most people do everything on phones now.
