Often, its asked what the fediverse or lemmy needs more of in terms of content, but are there any specific features or functionality you really feel are lacking?

Alongside others mentioned (tags/flairs, multi-communities, keyword filtering, etc.) another feature I'd like to see added/improved is notification settings.

Something like...

In account settings:

  • Enable/disable all notifications.
  • Enable/disable post reply notifications.
  • Enable/disable comment reply notifications.

For others' posts/comments and per posts/comments:

  • Enable/disable post reply notifications.
  • Enable/disable comment reply notifications.

With those settings you could more easily tune out all notifications or only opt into those you'd like to see, and opt out of those you're done with (say your post/comment got popular and you've had your fill from the replies).


Unrelated to notification settings, it would also be nice to be able to block communities from the front page via the ... More menu in the default web UI.

Yes, this is probably my single biggest one. Particularly:

opt out of those you’re done with (say your post/comment got popular and you’ve had your fill from the replies).
