Comment on Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy

I sincerely hope there’s less content here than Reddit, forever. I hope the UI keeps the masses out, and the technically savy are the only ones here.
I want to doomscroll less, I want to be astroturfed less. I want to interact with more humans and fewer bots, even when that means I interact less. I want fewer AI prompts, AI Art and corpo spam ads masquerading as engagement. I want less video and more text. Overall, I want to be spending less time on the internet, on my phone, and I don’t want to hear about every last toxic thing Trump did to drive me crazy. Lemmy helps me control that feed better, so I deleted my reddit account and I hope to stay here until I manage to stop opening social media at all.
Lemmy right now feels like the internet before the long september. I hope it never changes.

I love this! Totally agree, and you know what? I don’t need to give you an “award” and enrich the site owners with unnecessary money waste. I hope it never changes too. Quality over quantity.

The best reward on a Lemmy comment is an interesting and thoughtful reply.
