I barely use reddit anymore save for porn and niche subs but after that glorious app I had used for ages finally died a few days ago I felt devastated. it was like losing an old friend. I hope reddit dies an even slower and more painful death

I’m sure this “welcome kit” is meant as a helpful thing but I have to wonder if it is exactly the problem that prevents Lemmy from being adopted.
When someone joins Reddit, they don’t need to read a literal plethora of guides on how to use Reddit. It’s obvious.
What looks like a helpful thing to do is instead going to intimidate and confuse new people.
So ultimately the question is: why isn’t Lemmy obvious to use, and how do we make it so?
When someone joins reddit it isnt obvious what to do. A lot of people come from more common linear communication systems like bbs and etc and the whole reddit comment chain can be confusing to follow. It also is extremely confusing about joining communities and what that does to your feed. The thing is reddit has been around for a lot of years and those of us who have used it have forgotten how confusing it was in the beginning.
