I guess a lot of people on Lemmy indirectly know Tantacrul, he’s the product manager for Audacity and head of design for MuseScore.

Why? It depends on the business model, even RMS says it’s ok to make money with open source
I don’t think it’s necessarily the job of the developers, the main issue IMO is that there’s not enough involvement from other specialists such as designers in open-source communities.
This is not a problem with people, but with UX design.
We don’t need a corporation to have usable interfaces. Right now, if you visit join-lemmy.org, the main focus is for people wanting to host an instance, which is only a small part of the advanced user base. The common user won’t care about the fact Lemmy is made with rust or that there’s a docker image.
I don’t think it’s only an issue with Lemmy, lots of open-source projects lack user-friendliness and onboarding.
The problem already exists now, having oauth wouldn’t change anything.
And an update has just been released today!
