For me-- Lemmy is getting dangerously close to pulling me away from Reddit, and I love it, but still, there’s a ways to go in terms of ‘critical features,’ yeah?

So then, here’s two of mine below. What are yours?

  • I’d still very much like to HIDE threads I’m not interested in. Otherwise, no matter what stream I choose (Subscribed | Local | All), I keep seeing the same topics, and it can be downright difficult paging through streams to see new stuff from more communities. That’s not good, frankly.

  • I very much want the ability to create *more* custom streams. On Reddit, those streams are called “MultiReddits,” and let me tell you, they rock! For instance, my one “Series” multi-reddit consists of these:

/r/1950sx /r/1960sx /r/andykaufmanx /r/Asterixx /r/blackadderx /r/CoenBrothersx /r/Comics_Studiesx /r/DepthHubx /r/fathertedx /r/FawltyTowersx /r/Flintstonesx /r/FoolUsx /r/HannaBarberaCUx /r/Holmesx /r/InconvenienceStorex /r/jimjefferiesx /r/lettermanx /r/ligneclairex /r/Muppetsx /r/newsradiox /r/OldSchoolCelebsx /r/peeweex /r/pennandtellerx /r/philipkDickheadsx /r/postapocalypticx /r/silentmoviegifsx /r/TheAdventuresofTintinx /r/TheFlintstonesx /r/TNGx /r/tosx /r/venturebrosx

So that’s just /one/ of my 12+ stream groups (“MultiReddits”), and I love how one can parse them so specifically by community, you know?

I’d absolutely adore it such functionality could extend to Lemmy / the FV, one day.

    The rabbit hole of established niche communities to enjoy like AntiMLM or all the ones you mentioned. You can find something and have years of quality content to browse through whether old school celebs, movie details, amas, discussions to mine where people tell amazing stories that got turned into buzzfeed articles

    We have good people and good conversation on lemmy but the history, man…
