The lack of keyboard interface on Lemmy is killing me, but really what I want is a good client in Emacs. However, it’s beyond my Elisp to design and start such a project, but I could probably help. Anyone on it?

    FWIW I’m reading lemmy RSS feed with elfeed (hope this gets through - popping my lemmy cherry here)

        Sorry for delayed response, just getting used to lemmy …

        No, I don’t see comments - if I’m interested in the headline, I press ‘b’ to pop up the full item in my browser.

        Yes, I subscribe to communities like this:

        (use-package elfeed
  :bind (:map elfeed-search-mode-map
              ("s" . elfeed-search-set-filter)
              ("S" . elfeed-search-live-filter))
  :config (setf elfeed-sort-order 'ascending))

;; elfeed-dashboard is a nice add-on
(use-package elfeed-dashboard
  :ensure t
  :bind ("C-x w" . 'elfeed-dashboard)
  :config
  (setq elfeed-dashboard-file "~/.config/emacs/elfeed-dashboard.org")
  ;; update feed counts on elfeed-quit
  (advice-add 'elfeed-search-quit-window :after #'elfeed-dashboard-update-links))
