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

This is why email never caught on. Who wants to choose between Gmail, Yahoo, MSN, Proton, and Comcast? A successful email service would be one where you can only communicate with users of the same email service. /s
Except everyone just uses gmail now
It's very common, but in Australia at least, not ubiquitous.
And obviously businesses mostly do not
Most businesses also use outlook or gmail
This is fair, however, not ubiquitous and all their servers are expected to place nice with others.
Thank god email is federated, and not locked down to a particular company
