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.

    Multi-communities are on the radar for the devs. Don’t know of any timeline, but it’s not an uncommon request and I think the devs appreciate the value of it.
