It doesn't keep dumb people out, it keeps non tech savvy people out, I've seen extremely immature people on here
I'd pick a mature user over a tech savvy user any day. Ideally they'd be both
The UX is objectively bad, it breaks most good design principles
The majority wants better UX (look at up vote ratio of comments)
A fair amount of users want to gatekeep lemmy to only tech savvy people.

There's a lot of us who just want better on boarding and defaults, it's not a lot to ask.
You don't have to AB test all instances, we can do smaller tests.
But yea that's complicated and takes effort, instead we should at least follow good UX design principles for the default UX
We could do AB testing and see what users prefer.
Or at least change the Default Ui to adhere to good UX design principles
That would help if they had a clue which one was near them.
Default to "nearest" one?
It's closer to that yes, and you don't really know whar a football team is
You could also use revanced and patch the reddit apk on android.

Not ideal, the UI looks 15+ years old
Email is well established and has incredible UX.
Email wasn't competing with a well established centralised version of Email with a vastly superior UX when it was trying to gain users.
Lemmy doesn't exist in a vacuum
I'm the OP of one of the posts that blew up about UX.
This is great news, I will look into building something like join-lemmy/onboarding that could guide users, or improving join-lemmy
