Split NSFW into NSFW and NSFL.
I’d like to see more instances with 100-500 users.
I know that’s a community thing, more than a Lemmy thing. I just don’t feel like I have a wealth of choices. I’m still on lemmy.world and when I look around, I don’t see a lot of medium-sized instances to migrate to.
Here is a hopefully minor thing…
Reddit has multireddits where you can have a few that follows a certain selection of subreddits under a label. You can have multiple ones defined as well. Therefore, you can have a view for all things news (following multiple news things) without having to view those things on your main home feed (as well as any other defined topics that you can think of).
It would be nifty if such a thing could exist inside of Lemmy as well.
Not sure if this is Lemmy or the app I use, but I would like my saved content to appear in the order it was saved. It sucks when I save something old and am unable to find it when I look at my saved items.
This is great news! Thanks!
Omg yes! Was going to say this

YES
In-line translation features for non-English communities (in my case) would be very helpful and would exceed Reddit functionality, which is something I think Lemmy should strive toward
This should really be implemented at either the browser or lemmy-ui/app level, not in the back end.
Yes this would be amazing!
Saving is broken.
When showing a saved post or comment, show them in order of save instead of original post date. If I save an article, go to find it the next day, it’s not there. Turns out it was sorted under 6mos ago when it was originally posted.
I fixed that recently, it’ll be in the next release.
Woohoo! Thanks!
Brigaders.
People with like 10 accounts that upvote themselves/downvote dissent.
I also noticed sometimes after getting into an argument it’s like they go through my profile and start downvoting everything. I feel like any vote that comes from someone’s profile (rather than in the wild) should be flagged as suspicious because it feels like they’re never genuine.
Duplicate posts in my feed
I keep seeing 2 day old posts pretty high in the feed and it’s gotten annoying.
Yep I see that too. Not sure if the reader app plays any role in this, but I don’t think so.
Multi
redditscommunitiesSometimes when I’ve found new communities on non local instances I’m unable to subscribe directly and I get a screen where it asks me what instance I’m subscribing from and when I click the only suggestion “lemmy.world” it doesn’t recognize it as valid. I know you can subscribe to these communities in distant instances by using the local search bar with an exclamation point in front of it but it’s a convoluted process and could be streamlined.
I would like to be able to more effectively filter posts of languages i can’t understand. Using memmy i have been trying to filter posts by key word and entering common words in every language, but it’s not changed how much i scroll past, and it’s hard to determine if it’s effective at all.
I just blocked a few foreign communities, maybe three of the biggest ones. solved it for me
On the mobile website when I tap the link into a post, read it and then hit the back button, I often end up on the page before the one I clicked into the link from, so like, I have to scroll to the bottom of the page and hit next and scroll down again to see the same link I originally clicked. Sometimes when this happens the “subscribed/local/all” and “new/hot/controversial” dialogs are reset as well and I’ve lost my spot in the feed entirely.
This doesn’t emulate the presumed intended functionality of reddit feeds where if you hit back you are at the exact spot in the feed where you clicked the original link.
It would be nice if I was not logged out every few hours when browsing on iOS (safari). It’s annoying and I often just read threads logged out, then get sad when I can’t upvote without scrolling to the top to log in again.
Happens with Firefox on Linux too. Very annoying.
Accountability and transparency in moderation. You aren’t even made aware when you’re banned from a place, you have to go out of your way to see and even then you have zero recourse in changing the decision if it was made in error. It’s even worse when you get banned from your instance because it’s just suddenly you can’t log in and you don’t even know why. You can’t even transfer to a new instance. Pretty shit for something that can be done on the whim of a single person.
Somewhat related, as Lemmy continues to balkanize between pro-fascist instances (such as lemmy world, sh.ithole, and beehaw) and those explicitly against it (lemmy ml, lemmygrad, hexbear) the only way for users to opt out of interacting with users from those instances is to get yourself banned from the instance itself. I don’t mince words and have a zero-tolerance policy for injustice so it’s not hard for a person like me to catch those bans, but that’s hardly ideal for the federation as a whole to have to rely on something they can’t control in order to have a tolerable experience not constantly marred by some of the shittiest harassing assholes the federation has to offer.
EDIT: Maybe outright comment blocking on instances is a bit much, but absolutely auto-hide should be a thing.
