For me-- Lemmy is getting dangerously close to pulling me away from Reddit, and I love it, but still, there’s a ways to go in terms of ‘critical features,’ yeah?

So then, here’s two of mine below. What are yours?

  • I’d still very much like to HIDE threads I’m not interested in. Otherwise, no matter what stream I choose (Subscribed | Local | All), I keep seeing the same topics, and it can be downright difficult paging through streams to see new stuff from more communities. That’s not good, frankly.

  • I very much want the ability to create *more* custom streams. On Reddit, those streams are called “MultiReddits,” and let me tell you, they rock! For instance, my one “Series” multi-reddit consists of these:

/r/1950sx /r/1960sx /r/andykaufmanx /r/Asterixx /r/blackadderx /r/CoenBrothersx /r/Comics_Studiesx /r/DepthHubx /r/fathertedx /r/FawltyTowersx /r/Flintstonesx /r/FoolUsx /r/HannaBarberaCUx /r/Holmesx /r/InconvenienceStorex /r/jimjefferiesx /r/lettermanx /r/ligneclairex /r/Muppetsx /r/newsradiox /r/OldSchoolCelebsx /r/peeweex /r/pennandtellerx /r/philipkDickheadsx /r/postapocalypticx /r/silentmoviegifsx /r/TheAdventuresofTintinx /r/TheFlintstonesx /r/TNGx /r/tosx /r/venturebrosx

So that’s just /one/ of my 12+ stream groups (“MultiReddits”), and I love how one can parse them so specifically by community, you know?

I’d absolutely adore it such functionality could extend to Lemmy / the FV, one day.

    For me, for now, it’s the ability to tap ‘back’ and be at the same point in the page that I was at when I clicked a link.

    Instead, on kbin, it’ll often dump me at the end of the page - because I’ve got a auto load media turned on and the browser doesn’t cache the media it seems.

    Used to work around this by using the Chrome PWA, and long pressing each link, but kbin no longer lets me log in on Chrome with an invalid csrf error.

    With the API just about some, and at least one app similarly almost ready, I am not worried. The ability to post an image in a reply, and it actually works, is a massive improvement over Reddit for me.
