I'm curious to get everyone's thoughts on opportunities to improve!

Probably some central home page. That has a set of communities.

I think the most common complaint from new users is that it's too complicated and "I can't find anything"

If there was just a reddit front page esque thing going on I think the barrier to entry would be lower.

  • a culture of providing summaries for links

  • fewer videos and images

  • ability to crosspost comments or textposts from within the fediverse

  • reading lists beyond just subscribed (a la "multireddits")

  • the ability to tag other users a la RES

  • user flair for munis

  • better mod controls (eg. make it easier to add or remove additional mods, automoderation, more streamlined reporting, federate moderation more effectively)

  • better control of a user's own content (eg. being able to delete posts effectively)

  • ninja edits for tupos

I am subscribed, but I cannot see the posts in my feed because people keep downvote bombing them

More diverse politics stances rather than just commies and liberals

[–] AceTKen@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Oh man... you're speaking directly to why I made Actual Discussion (consider this a personal invite).

We frequently get one-time posters coming in and flaming (or downvoting without reading) on any thread that may not agree with them, then when challenged with sources, they vanish. It's brutal. I wish we could disable certain behaviours on our instance or in the Community itself.

If I could cross post in Sync like I can on the website.

I need an app that allows me to swipe left or right through favorites that I organize. Could do this on reddit, still can't here.

Just general stability things. Images not loading. Comment counts appearing but not being able to load. No handling for blocked posts via direct link. No handling for hidden posts via direct link when hiding already-viewed posts. Not being able to see your own posts when hiding already-viewed posts. Upvoting or downvoting a post clears the in-progress comment box.

Show read posts in individual communities. Hide read post in the aggregate feed.

I feel like the web interface could be better. I would like to be able to hide posts, use keybindings to navigate, and generally the overall performance could be better. But we have third party clients, which is a huge plus!
