Can't you report a comment for that?

Suggestion: Easy account migration between instances

Imagine you register to Lemmy.world, but realize you're missing half the content because it comes from Hexbear or Lemmygrad users. Migrating to Lemmy.ml is a solution for this

Most people want to block those instances, not access them.

The decentralized nature of Lemmy, while appealing in theory, creates significant frustration in practice due to widespread instance blocking. Finding an ideal instance becomes a daunting task, as users must navigate a complex web of inter-instance politics and restrictions. This challenge is further compounded for those who prioritize factors like low latency or specific content policies. Lemmy's architecture heavily favors instance-level configurations, leaving individual users with limited control over their experience. The only reliable solutions seem to be either hosting a personal instance—a technical hurdle for many—or simply hoping that your chosen instance's admins align with your preferences and don't block communities you enjoy. This politicking ultimately undermines the platform's potential.

Seems like there's basically no effort to address disinformation. I love the idea of the fediverse, but I've never told a single person I use it in well over a year because I'd be embarrassed if they ever visited and saw some of the content that gets upvoted here.

Automatic OCR and filtering based on content in an image.

It seems when a user is blocked and comments on a thread, any comments under that are also blocked. It should only be blocking that user, not the thread?

[-] infeeeee@lemm.ee 4 points 1 week ago

It would be hard to get the context, and you could totally misunderstood the thread, e.g. from your hidden comment everyone get that replies are sarcastic, but you don't.

Maybe an "temporarily unhide blocked user's comment and replies" button to show the whole thread.

When I go to Lemmy, I'm not logged in until I click on a post to read, what's up with that? I used to stay logged in.

sounds more like a potential browser/cache/extsnion thing than lemmy itself but what do i know

lemmy-ui: Highlighting some words blindly in inline code is really annoying. For example,

  • systemctl --user cat emacs
  • pactl load-module module-switch-on-connect
