Hide post button. Not always but sometimes I see a post I'm just not interested in or are questionable and don't want to see them

If the goddamn TLDR bot updated regularly and if it appeared on every post with an article within 5 min.

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.

I use Kbin, so my experience is a little different, but do Lemmy instances not have default communities? If not, that seems like a pretty good addition, but if so, then I think that experience is going to be largely dictated by the individual instance you're signing up with.

  • 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

Where are you seeing videos? Or are you talking about links to YouTube?

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.
