Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.
What can we do?

well in that case join an instance that doesn’t federate with queer/transphobe instances? This is the advantage of federated social networks - it gives full control to the people who run their own instances
That would require people actually recommending specific websites, and all people seem to want to do is circle jerk about “lemmy”, as if it’s a tangible place and not a website engine
I guess that is because people don’t understand what the fediverse is and why it exists. It is one of the foundational problems the fediverse aims to fix. Marginalized communities get all the tools and authority to protect themselves from hatred and abuse.
I actually think that’s the way to go! lemmy.blahaj.zone would be one example of a queer-inclusive community.
Blahaj still federates with .world, which as you said in your previous comment is a problem.
Blahaj also struggles with an anti-drama moderation stance, which is harmful to queer people. “Don’t rock the boat” is a saying that privileges the majority.
Im curious about what the issue with lemmy.world is? It’s just the big instance I saw when I started, so I went with that and haven’t really had any issues. Nothing is really keeping me here so just wondering what im missing
Drag has been misgendered (The he/him kind), harassed, and banned from communities on .world for using neopronouns. The admins don’t care and do nothing.
