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

You don't need to research and choose a server, unless you have personal issues. I get the impression that some people are so polarized they feel like logging into the wrong server would put them on the Wrong Side and make them evil. Some also can't let go of the corporate media mindset that says domination is necessary for survival, or even that a contest is necessary. I just enjoy the content and ignore the complaints about numbers. The concept of multiple servers might keep some people away if they think they need to understand it, but they really don't.
