The Seven Deadly Fediverse UX Sins: A Redemption Report Card - We Distribute


This is a follow-up to Tim Chambers' "The Seven Deadly UX Sins", in which we collaboratively review where and how the network has improved over the past six months, with a lot of different initiatives to show for it!

the "sins" read like that have expectations that the fediverse will be just like the centralized platforms; it's not and will fail if they try to become like them.

I disagree. Decentralization has its own quirks when it comes to usability. This is not a call to exactly emulate centralized platforms, but a recognition of where many of the pain points are, and how we can collectively improve the UX to make it a better experience for newcomers.
