I had a look at voyager, and it's UX is perfect for new users. It would be great to get the web to that point https://photon.lemmy.world/ seems quite good, maybe that should be default.
Yes it does depend on the front end.But that's the thing its not the default front end.Most users will give up before discovering Photon.The default experience should be very smooth and require little to no effort and thinking. Like what everyone has gotten used to
This will keep happening until Lemmy etc. Have good UXFor the vast majority of users the UX just sucks for most of the fediverseWe need to push for or fund better UX
As an average OG ex-redditor, Lemmy needs to move away from it's base barebones UI to something like Photon by default, here's why.
I'm new to Lemmy and quite tech savvy. I'd like to get more people I know to join, but the standard UI really wasn't nice. Thanks for showing me Photon, I like it so much more!! I'm using Sync on mobile, I miss the Upvote & Downvote bar, any idea how to get it back?
