That's fine as your opinion, but it's not a popular one. Many people tried lemmy and left almost immediately because they want a better UI. We come from the old usenet boards so we know what UI was like back then, but now people expect a great UI/UX to use a service. So yes, I understand the principals, but we shouldn't demonize people who pay money for a better experience, and if you're a developer I'm sure you know that a good UX costs some money, but a great UX costs a lot of money.
