    Honestly, I think Lemmy could be the perfect social media*.

    The only things missing are video and user-feeds. If Lemmy could add the ability to follow users (rather than just communities) and a feed that shows you only posts from those users, that would already make it better than Instagram and Twitter/Mastodon, IMO. AFAIK videos are very hard to do, but if Lemmy could add great video support (a good video player and embeds), then it could be better than YouTube.

    *There are many things that Lemmy is trying to do right now, but not doing very well, such as direct messages and UI, so it’s not perfect by any means, but I believe it’s going in the right direction and trying to do the right things to get there. And, of course, it doesn’t have enough content or people to be infinitely browsable yet.
