Just noticed that unlike mastodons join page, lemmy doesn't have a "join" or "create an account" button. It'd be nice to have one, it would be more straightforward to join.

Or perhaps there is a reason why it doesn't exist?

Lemmy has a huge onboarding problem. Instead of trying to make users learn about instances they should be able to join a default instance directly.

Yeah, this is one of the main problems impeding lemmy's growth. Normies don't care about "instances."

Maybe there needs to be some rough IP geolocating to just pick one for them and redirect.
