The ability to view posts that I upvoted
This. On r*ddit I used to upvote posts, and save really important ones to organise them. Maybe even some way to organize bookmarked posts.
Don’t know if that’s a client side thing or not.
Obviously client side, but Apollo for Reddit allowed you to bin saved posts into specific categories. I understand it wasn’t trivial to implement, but hope a Lemmy client is able to implement something similar one day.
Instance blocking/defederate on a user level
This PR in lemmy will implement the issue PR #3869. Looking at the thread, the devs have completed the work and waiting for successful testing.
Oh wow…. This is so nice to see. Thanks for the heads-up!
add some damn good mod tools. lemmy will die if the user base grows and the mod tools do not.
Not a mod tool, but since I’ve found you. Is there a way to hide post points on user devices from being shown to the user? If not, feature request please.
Depending on my mood, I sometimes do not want to see the points my posts have received. And likewise, sometimes I don’t want to see the points others have received either.
This is on my todo list ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

I have made an AutoMod, does it count? :))
Mod Tool would be a good Halloween costume.
Less community repetition. I feel like it spreads out potential members and makes each community smaller with repetitive content. I wish communities could be more linked so they share content and members.
I’ve had a thought, what if clients allowed users to mix and match communities so that they show as one? You could bundle all the gaming communities into one for instance. You’d still see where each publication originates from but they would appear in the same feed
The issue with this is doing it locally.
If you bundle 20 communities you’d end up doing 20 requests back to back to create the combined list. Could end up being really slow.
But aren’t clients already doing this in order to display ‘all’ or ‘subscribed’ ?
Nah that comes back from the API in on call, it’s combined on lemmys side.
Pretty sure Summit is the only one to implement that so far.
How does moderation work this way?
One idea: Community owners can link their community with another, like friend requests between communities. From that point they act like one community with multiple owners. Everything is duplicated, and that includes removing content and banning users. Client side apps can show them as one community.
The ability to easily link to a specific post or comment in a way that works across instances/clients, like you can with communities.
That is a reallu good idea.
there’s a discussion about that here https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2987
Link communies. When two communies are linked they act like one with multiple names distributed on multiple instances. This would solve the dublicate communities on different instance problem.
Beautiful. But it would be tough to make moderation work. Administration too, for that matter.
I think it could work like this:
The moderators of each community are primarily responsible for their posts and keep an eye on the moderation by the other community. If one side is unhappy with the moderation of the other, they can cut the link and vice versa.
Administrators act as if the others community’s post are part of the community on their instance too. If there are weird posts, the community gets banned etc.
I think Linking would be great.

Hide read posts only from the frontage. There should be an option to have them visible in their community itself to refer back later.
@ljdawson@lemmy.world my request is a bit different. I actually use Sync. When we hide posts from the frontpage using “Hide Read Posts” toggle, it hides the post from both the frontpage and the community where the post was posted. I’d like to have a setting where it only hides read posts from the frontpage.
Sometimes I like to go back to a community (like Starfield for e.g.) to read posts that I hid previously from frontpage to see newer discussions or just look back at things after a couple of days.
Oh I see. Kind of how this used to work with saved items on your profile on Reddit?
Umm, I’m not sure as I didn’t use Sync for Reddit, if it was an app specific feature.
In the current Lemmy app if we hide read posts, they are kinda lost. I’d like to visit a community and even see the read posts that were hidden from the frontpage. It could be an option for the user to decide if they want the current method or let the hidden “read” posts be hidden only from the All/Subscribed/Local frontpage (and not from the community page itself)
- Low hanging: user defined multi-communities
- Hard (high hanging fruit): allow users to look and behave like communities so that we can follow each other (and masto users too ) as we would normal communities, where each user has their own (or multiple!) “community” they can populate and moderate as they see fit.
I wouldn’t stop using Lemmy because of “user profiles”, but this was one of the worst things implemented by Reddit. Basically started the slide into Facebook-tier
You can follow people and do regular posts on kbin in case you didn’t know yet.
But, as far as I know, you can’t have a feed of posts from people that you follow, instead they get folded into the magazines.
Huh, seems like you’re right or at least I couldn’t find anything like that. I feel like theoretically ot should be able to do that, so I’m gonna snoop around a bit more and maybe file an issue. Doesn’t help that kbin’s UI is still pretty atrocious at the moment, but the project is still fairly young and developing at a good pace at least.
Oh no knock on kbin here from me. Seems the design is still community/magazine focused is all.
The suggestion in my previous post (which others have made BTW) is not just about having both microblogging and reddit-like platforms in one place, but, IMO, creating a blogosphere type of platform fused with a Reddit-like platform, and which, if you want, can function like microblogging and have microblogging platforms easily mapped onto it (for federation purposes).
I’d get rid of the bots that repost content and comments from Reddit.
go to your /settings page and uncheck “Show Bot Accounts”
I’m actually the opposite, I’m glad I can leech off reddit and use it to kickstart communities but I see where you’re coming from.

Ability to migrate account or a community to another instance.
Can we do this after they shut down their server please
The pie in the sky answer is “get all my friends and relations to use it.”
More realistically: I wish I could follow or friend a person here.
Some sort of organizational hierarchy or tagging system so the user could block wide swaths of communities like sports, celebrities, music, or whatever they aren’t interested in; without having to block each community individually.
Usenet like tree, maybe with symbolic links?
Maybe a hashtag feature for communities would be a quick start at this
I’d make the culture more like the rest of the fediverse, instead of reddit like as it is now. Too many ex reddit folk have brought the bad parts of reddit culture with them
Yeah, the feeling of chatting with considerate adults is slipping. I’ve started doing the Reddit thing of typing out a comment and then hitting the cancel button because I didn’t want to deal with contrarians.
Respond with contrarian-bait and then go slap-happy with blocks. Eventually the professional contrarians vanish from your feed never to be seen again.
I totally agree. Lemmy had an awesome, friendly helpful vibe and the reddit exodus had a noticeably negative affect on the nature of the discourse. It became more nasty, more petulant more quipy, and more angsty. Now that people are here, I’m not at all saying they should leave, but maybe read the room and try to be a part of something better. The internet doesn’t have to be a hostile place.
I’d like the “show context” link to work. Maybe that’s just me? It used to work but no longer. It’d be helpful when I go to a post from the reply notification thing. (viewing this on the web in Firefox)
There was a version of Lemmy that broke that. Make sure your instance is on the latest version as it should be fixed since.
Your own posts should show in your profile even you have Show Read Posts off. And there should be an easy visible toggle while browsing.
