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.
Good ideas for new names, however, I think this is seen very controversial in the community.
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.
Some sort of rotation system would be cool that distributes the users across multiple instances. That way no single instance gets too big.
But I cannot share this here, unfortunately.
