The problem is people are selling Lemmy the wrong way, lol. The average user doesn't give a fuck about decentralization or federation. If you want to convince people that Lemmy is a good Reddit alternative, you have to show them the content/discussions and the UI/UX.

UI/UX is getting better, but still far away. The mobile apps are okay. Content is still behind, mostly because most lemmings aren't helping their communities in generating content and engagement. The moderators can only do so much in curating. You got to help them out by posting content as well or at least commenting on the threads. Don't just lurk.

Yeah you're right. I'll think about that.

There might be some solutions for this.
