Truth. I've set up accounts for people and they just walk.

Sometimes I think we are destined to be only a niche community, but maybe thats ok.

It's ok to be a niche community, but it isn't OK to have poor UI/UX, definitely something to be improved, especially when it comes to the onboarding process. That's however a task for the front ends.

Indeed, any improvement will be a definite plus!
