Unfortunately, Fediverse apps still have a lot of UX issues compared to their mainstream alternatives. Those will need to be smoothed over for mainstream adoption to take root.
They’re attractive to the tech inclined who are comfortable working around what, to them, is minor clunkiness. Mainstream users have shorter attention spans and are more likely to move on when there’s friction.
Far as the meme is concerned, the only Fediverse equivalent is Loops which is still in closed beta.
Except Voyager app (or webapp) that shits ready for the masses
Feels 100% like the Apollo app for redit, plus blocked features of Apollo are free in voyager
Easiest way to sum up Facebook
Not with their onboarding.
(Also, familiarity is a kind of UX lubricant, all on its own)
