Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by our Lemmy community and taking part. This is just a quick outline of where we are and where we intend to go.

The first thing our dev team is working on is better spoiler tagging and post flairs. These are of the highest priority to us because as a community that focuses on books, movies, TV and gaming we want people to enjoy media without fear of spoilers. We don't have a time frame for this, but our team is already reviewing Lemmy code and getting ready to write.

Beyond that, we are still in discussions as to what features would be needed. Mod tools are going to be a high priority as well, but it would be good to know what you all, the users, would like to see. Feel free to comment here about features you're interested in so we can add them to our discussions.

Also, if you ARE a mod here, feel free to add what additional tools you would be interested in using.

Making this site as useable as we can is our current aim. Your help can go a long way towards that. And if you wish to help us on the development side, join our discord and we can get you added to the team.

How does this Dev Team interact with the official Lemmy repository? Based on the Reddit post where you were directing people to message the Mod team rather than visit the Lemmy GitHub page, somehow I get the impression you guys are working on a forked version of Lemmy rather than contributing to the core repository. Is that accurate?

We are currently sending pull requests to mainline Lemmy when individual features get done (so far 1 has). If our updates aren't taken we will hard fork to make sure our communities get the spoiler and mod features we need in order to function. Our dev team currently works on features specifically requested by our community mods and members, and is not devoted to working on specific requests from mainline Lemmy, but it's nice when those features overlap.

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't actually get a notification for this comment.

edit: I DID reply to this message. I'm an idiot.
