    Whenever Lemmy or Masto gets a flood of new users, a portion of them never make it past the instance selection and totally bail.

    The user experience was designed by people who literally respond to user feedback by telling users to commit new code to the project.

    It’s clearly designed by engineers who assume other users will be just like them.

      This of the core of the problem. Github energy.

      Fine for a hobby. Not good enough for a public-facing product.
