Push Lemmy out there. Help Lemmy grow. Lemmy has a few issues that need addressed;

1. The Name needs changed, you see who shows up when you search Lemmy. The easiest thing to do is switch it to "Lemme" (Sounds like "Let Me", like just lemme post this) or Lemy.

2. Lemmy needs an app that is just as easy as Reddit to sign up for. It needs to drop on the person's computer desktop and sign them into a default federation that auto accepts everyone. The initial signup process is confusing to people, with the website listing different federation and having to apply and wait. Some auto accept, people need to be pointed to those.

Recently I've created a private forum and so far I'm very happy with it. It's nice that our discussions are private, keeping data gobblers, programmatic advertisers, grifters and other schmucks like this out in the cold.

To be clear, I'm advertising the idea, not membership.
