    I am trying to transition away from reddit but I won’t delete my account. Do you think that lemmy will eventually become more popular as a result of what reddit has done? It has a much more complicated signup process.

      I’m really no good when it comes to speculative things. Lemmy (and the fediverse) is intriguing to me, but I do feel like it needs to be made more user friendly if it is to take off and garner more mainstream appeal.

      Currently it really puts the federated-ness in the forefront, but I feel like it might be an idea to soften that a bit. The average user wouldn’t care so much about the details, but knowing that it’s not run by a single big corporation might be appealing. Streamlining the signup process would go a long way.
