Please post one top-level comment per complaint. Then others can reply with ideas or existing GitHub issues that could address that complaint. This helps identify both common complaints and potential solutions.

You can also reply on [email protected] to better organize the discussion:

I believe there are a large number of feature requests on Lemmy's GitHub page, making it difficult for developers to prioritize what's truly important. I propose creating a quarterly pinned post on Lemmy asking users for complaints and suggestions. This way, developers can better understand the community's biggest pain points and what to focus on. The goal is to provide constructive feedback so developers can prioritize the most pressing issues.

Please keep discussion productive and focused on specific problems. Avoid vague complaints or feature wishes without justification. Our aim is to give developers clear insights into issues impacting users most.

You can do a "thumbs up" on github, iirc the developer said last time i talked to him is that this is what they use for prioratization.

Here is the list of the most "thumbs up" issues on github for the "lemmy" repo.

We could always use rysolv (a bounty platform), that can different from "I want this" and "i think it is important enought to risk some of my money for it".

Yeah, this post might be a bit clickbaity, luring people with false expectations. I suppose OP has not spoken a word with the devs, and they won't look at this thread, nor do they see a need for a poll of some sorts. Or maybe I'm wrong, but the wording is suspiciously vague.

Thanks for pointing out what actually works; GitHub issues and bounties.
