New Lemmy user here. I have two points of improvement I’d like to note, but am not sure where the actual ‘responsibility’ lies.
It would be great to be able to mass-block communities from lists, rather than tiresomely do them one -at-a-time from ‘All’.
It would also be useful to see the list for subscribing, as I don’t know what’s out there until I see it. Sometimes I can’t think of something to search for until I see it.
Perhaps this lies more with individual apps/ clients rather than the Lemmy ecosystem…?
May I suggest that communities entirely consisting of bots re-posting Reddit links is, uh, unhelpful?
I’m equally and technically impressed by both Memmy and Avelon, cosmetically impressed more by Avelon (Memmy is also gorgeous), and emotionally more attached to Memmy since it was the first true native Apollo-like Lemmy adaptation and dev is super on-the-ball. Not that Avelon’s is not I just can’t speak to it since I haven’t felt the need in my admittedly-lesser use of it compared to Memmy.
Both amazing apps and you really can’t go wrong with either. I do really like Avelon’s forced collapsing of all top-level comments’ child comments which makes it easier to navigate the various apects people are commenting on at the top level and work your way down to more specific discssion based on your filtering of which top level comments address that which is of immediate interest to the specific readers’ needs or preferred line of inquiry
We could - but we’re still getting comments here. Why not continue to use this thread and sort by new?
Also - this topic doesn’t even really belong in Asklemmy per the rules. If anything, I’m more inclined to unpin it and return to dealing with posts as needed.
2 months later and there’s still not a satisfying answer. I would have hoped 1 or 2 apps would have risen to the top by now, but it’s still just a scattershot of people suggesting like 8-10 different ones. There’s no consensus.
I don’t want to download an app and get all set up only for development on it to suddenly halt. Then I’d either have to switch again, or be stuck with one that’s forever missing features.
Too many new apps popped up in too short of time. Some of them are bound to fail or be abandoned. Some of them are likely to have been hacked together by amateurs and contain gaping security or functionality flaws.
Does anyone have a suggestion with more substance than “I like this app because it’s the one I downloaded”?
