  1. Can we get the show context bug fixed? Pretty please? :3 Possibly the most frustrating bug we've ever had.

  2. Also, on crossposted threads can we get the first thread marked as "original post" so it's clear what the originating community is for people that might want to subscribe to it for similar content. The indication of the originating community is a considerable source of subscriptions over on reddit and one of the primary methods that crossposting functions as a growth tool for new communities.

  3. When you started this project did you think it would get where it is now? Was it a sort of daydream thing or a serious belief that it would get this far?

  1. Its fixed in a back-end PR, we'll try to get a bugfix release sometime soon.
  2. Hrm... haven't thought about that. Could you open up an issue in lemmy-ui . I think the cross_posts field is sorted by published, but I'm not totally positive. In that case it'd just be marking it in the UI in some way.
  3. I def didn't anticipate it would get this far this fast... we've become the 2nd most popular fediverse software recently. I'm super-excited about the impact we can have on global media, and getting ppl to break their dependency/addiction to US-tech dominated spaces.

If stuff as well as yours had existed in 2004 when IRC "died" and facebook etc. grew we might still have functioning decentralized boards as default right now.
