I was wondering what the point of lemmy was, if we can’t get a certain number of people, we won’t be able to thrive as a community and I don’t see lots of people joining even though it is an open-source and decentralised forum unlike reddit.
There are many obvious things lemmy could do better, should I make a report about it? I think we are lagging behind and not doing things which are obvious. A better GUI for mobile website would be one of the top suggestions I have. thoughs?
Justifications for design choices, backed up by principles that creates the foundation for a humane platform. There needs to be a justification for how a platform is presented like it is. What is the purpose of the platform? Who is the target audience? And build everything from there.
This is helpful. There’s also the ethical.net definition of “humane technology”. It would be amazing for someone to do some user research, or a usability study. Are you volunteering? 😉
@libre_warrior In addition to my reply to another of your comments let me add
The justification for a design doesn’t matter as much as the result itself. Just because something wasn’t built thinking about the usecase you have in mind doesn’t mean it cannot fit that purpose.
