I’m not currently developing a Lemmy app, and I have no plans to, so this is not a market research post for myself. If anything, I’d like it to be a resource for existing developers to see which features the community most wants!
So, putting aside regular features (e.g. things that the Hard-R app already does), I’m specifically wondering about which less common features you all want?
Here’s of one of mine:
I’d like to be able to limit my usage of an instance to a specific account. For example: I never want to post to LemmyNSFW from my main account. That’s what my alt is for. So I want to be automatically switches to my preferred account per-instance when I interact with it (or at least give me the choice to switch on-the-fly when composing a post or comment).
Two features I’m really missing are related to revisiting or refreshing comment threads.
First, the ability to remember your spot on the scroll bar if you exit a thread and return later.
Second, highlighting new comments made since your last visit of the thread.
Highlighting new comments is something I really miss from Apollo. That app did it perfectly.
