This isn't how roundabouts work.
Roundabouts do fill up. And rapid lane changing really messes things up.
Slower, courteous traffic is the best that can be accomplished.
But when it fills up, it fills up.
One has to wonder if the driver asking for the right lane to be cleared immediately shifts to the left lane and back out to the right. If that driver consciously makes it easier for traffic to enter. That would be good.
Actually, that is a good idea! I'll try that myself. I didn't think of that.
So, a rewrite: "it's often hard getting into the roundabout. It would be nice if traffic already in the roundabout did what they could to mek getting in a bit easier."
Good idea. Thanks.

I agree - improved signage is needed.
In case you missed the issue which discussed how to navigate traffic circles, here are some links:
https://www.nysdot.gov/main/roundabouts/guide-users/motor-vehicle.
I've also attached a picture.
Now we just need someone to reach out to the DOT to install the signage.
