Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.

What can we do?

Sometimes I think it would be best if we could have some kind of read-only instance people can create an account on and get stuck in first, then choose an instance to sign up to once they understand it. The instance would be locked down so they couldn't create any communities.

I believe lemmy.myserv.one is what you're looking for.
