A few ideas from the top of my head

  • Flairs that can be allowed to filter content in a community
  • Major online communites (can be subreddits, or other communities) moving to Lemmy
  • Reddit removing old.reddit
  • Reddit banning people using VPNs (already happening, see [email protected] )
  • Lemmy becoming the reference source of knowledge for a certain domain

Second point is probably crucial, but I don’t see any major subreddit wanting to move here. StarTrek is the exception more that the rule.

    Totally agree. Differentiating NSFW and NSFL is a must have. Right now I have NSFW turned on bc I occasionally want to see Ukraine combat stuff, but I’ve probably had to spend like 2+ hours blocking all the niche porn communities which is becoming untenable as every day a few more spin up. And I love the idea of a welcome/starter pack for new users; that’s the other part of Lemmy that’s really lacking - finding the communities you want to be a part of (if they even exist on the fediverse yet)! So many communities are ghost towns, other topic-based communities have duplicates or triplicate communities on different instances, etc. my strategy is to subscribe to communities as I find them in my feed, but having an index of the most popular communities curated for new users would be a game changer.
