I agree, I think Lemmy needs to be more easy to use and accessible if we want it to go mainstream. Us tech nerds tend to grossly overestimate what the average computer user's tech skills are. Here's an interesting study showing that most adults in the world barely know how to use a computer at all: https://www.nngroup.com/articles/computer-skill-levels/ Of course, people who are on Reddit already have a certain degree of tech-savviness, but Lemmy still has a more confusing UI than Reddit.
What I say: whoops I forgot to do my laundry 🤪
What I mean: I've been thinking about doing the laundry every moment of the day for five days and it has prevented me from doing anything or experiencing happiness, but somehow the laundry is still not done
The real reason is "the prophet said so, so just obey without question"
Yeah for sure. I went to the Join Lemmy website and was so confused about where I was supposed to create an account. Once I found lemm.ee and their intro to Lemmy article, it got way easier.
