All the apps make it very difficult to create a post. You have to know what community you will be posting to, search for the community, click the three dots, click create post, click whether it’s a photo/link/text and then start posting.

Why not just have a Create Post button with the title field, url field, body text field, and a button to upload a photo and then a choose community button

Very easy from Sync too. Questioning this “all the apps” and “very difficult” business.

Jerboa’s create button “+” is actually obnoxiously big on the front page. I should be able to hide it. It give the fields title, url, body, community, and nsfw toggle.

Jerboa has pretty much exactly that

Liftoff also has a create post button with exactly that.

You say “all the apps” but I’ve tried a fair number of Lemmy apps and they’ve all had some form of “create post” button except maybe some very early alpha releases.

Eternity has a big plus icon in the bottom right corner, doesn’t get much simpler than that
