With previous Rexit’s like the API debarcle etc. many users were left looking for an alternative, but with decision fatigue and bad UX etc. most did not find the Fediverse a viable option.

What needs to still improve, how can we be ready this time?

    There’s only a few communities I’d be interested in seeing come over and they’ve already made it clear they’re not interested in moving because of reddits enshittification. I don’t think lemmy should cater to people who can’t be bothered to get over the small initial hump of choosing an instance. We don’t need more users just for the sake of more users anyway. People like that aren’t bringing anything to the table anyway.

      It’s a shame because once you get it, it’s actually kinda fun. Like choosing a Harry Potter house lol

      The front page of leminal.space is a soothing experience everytime I log on. Their slogan is literally:

      Take a break from the slow-burn apocalypse of late stage capitalism’s race to the bottom

        I chose the second most popular instance at the time I joined and haven’t thought about it since then except when I have to log into it
