Hey everyone! I’ll be going through and making features for the site soon (as I’ve almost got my laptop back) and wanted to know if there was any features that are wanted that I dont already have noted down

I’m currently planning to do:

  • Customizable icon shapes (circle, hexagon, etc.)
  • Flairs
  • Ability to block an instance
  • Ability for admins or community mods to hide communities from the all feed
  • Community short descriptions (to show in the community list + top of sidebar)

And polls are also being worked on by snowe

Will try to get the changes merged into lemmy itself as well but they’ll be released here first

    Yeah should be fine, dont think any changes made are going to severely overhaul the base structure so everything will be able to merge in (and if it does change then makes sense to branch off at that point)

    Yeah it’ll be in a github repo. Currently trying to brainstorm a name and then I’ll share the repo publicly

      I really hope it doesn’t come to that. I don’t want to become a fork of Lemmy. I would consider going to a different instance if that happened, because I would need to weigh pros/cons of sticking to OG Lemmy dev team or programming.dev team.

        Yeah very unlikely to actually happen. Even if it branched stuff could be shared between them, just would have to be adapted a bit
