I’m willing to discuss UI/UX issues but that top comment is just stupid.
The first complaint is that “lemmy.world” shouldn’t exist, because websites should be dot com. That’s not a UI/UX issue, that’s just ignorance. As we all know Bluesky has also failed to pickup any users due to its URL bsky.app, you obviously can’t have a dot app website!
The second argument is worth looking at, but it’s unclear based on their comment what went wrong. If you go to Reddit and search for Brazil/Brasil do you just magically find every community you’re looking for? I doubt it. Discovery can and should be improved but this person found an instance before a community?

Part of me just thinks this place needs a natural barrier to entry. Look what happened to the internet when the iPhone released.
Really shows the average intelligence of the average internet user.
As I get smarter, they just stay the same!
