I’d like to invite you all to share your thoughts and ideas about Lemmy. This feedback thread is a great place to do that, as it allows for easier discussions than Github thanks to the tree-like comment structure. This is also where the community is at.

Here’s how you can participate:

  • Post one top-level comment per complaint or suggestion about Lemmy.
  • Reply to comments with your own ideas or links to Github issues related to the complaints.
  • Be specific and constructive. Avoid vague wishes and focus on specific issues that can be fixed.
  • This thread is a chance for us to not only identify the biggest pain points but also work together to find the best solutions.

By creating this periodic post, we can:

  • Track progress on issues raised in previous threads.
  • See how many issues have been resolved over time.
  • Gauge whether the developers are responsive to user feedback.

Your input may be valuable in helping prioritize development efforts and ensuring that Lemmy continues to meet the needs of its community. Let’s work together to make Lemmy even better!

    community aggregators. For big communities, merge crossposts automatically on bigger communities

    PieFed does this

        Holy crap am I glad someone piped up.

        You know how much I don’t care about Toyota when I’m talking about Hyundai? You know much I really don’t care about piefed’s features when this is not about piefed?

        Thank you.

          I agree. And while it is amazing the features that rimu has added to piefed, I personally really like Sopuli, and its admin team. I do have a piefed account, and I use it. But Sopuli, and thereby lemmy, is my main instance.

          • you can’t get a Toyota on top of your Huyndai in 5 minutes, you can create a Piefed account and import your Lemmy settings in 5 minutes
          • a lot of people aren’t aware about Piefed, and how compatible it is with Lemmy

        yea, but if Lemmy never adds a feature you really want, maybe we just switch to PieFed lol

        the Lemmy devs are very much against merged comments

        and they haven’t even seemed to notice this thread yet (Rimu did though!) and just closed a ton of issues as “won’t fix”, meanwhile Rimu responded in a similar thread for PieFed within 2 hours of it being posted https://piefed.social/comment/7335468

        although Lemmy does show crossposts already and v1.0 will have multi-communities
