Showing an equal number of posts per community instead of letting the big ones dominate both “hot” and “top”
Ban instances like Hexbear and Lemmygrad from showing posts to normal people on All. Make them as difficult to find as possible.
I’ve heard a rumor around the dev channels that a feature taking care of that is coming with the next update, users should be able to block whole instances locally.
However who you end up getting federated with should probably be your main criteria when picking your home instance. Lemm.ee is awesome because it’s federated with almost everyone, but if you can’t stomach that maybe you’re in the wrong place.
Lemmy has an extremism problem. Partly because of the lack of moderation tools (which is why a lot of mods supposedly left reddit in the first place) and partly because of the lack of moderation, or straight up complacency of some mods.
Some sort of organizational hierarchy or tagging system so the user could block wide swaths of communities like sports, celebrities, music, or whatever they aren’t interested in; without having to block each community individually.
personal user sort method for post replies
eg: users I upvote more get higher placement in threads when I sort them this way. This would replicate ‘algorithms’ used on other sites.
