Idk if its in the works but really want transportable profiles, and the ability to add a licence to content i post like pixelfed and peertube.
Would also be nice to have tags hopefully they federate with mastodon.
Idk if they are gonna add any of this just would like to see it in the future.

That isn’t in the works. @[email protected] decided to close the issue on GitHub without waiting for community input.

Account migration similar to Mastodon and better onboarding of users similar to Pixelfed.
IPO.
;p
Right now I’m not particularly excited about any upcoming features.
I wish there was some feature in the works to let me see less memes and US politics without having to block or subscribe to a bunch of communities. I thought scaled sorting would solve this issue, I was really looking forward to it, but it didn’t quite live up to my expectations. I thought it would be like the “top” sort but with more diversity, but it ended up feeling more like the “new” sort with most posts having just a single vote.
The last release had some great additions. I wish there was a roadmap for Lemmy so I could anticipate future releases and features like I do with other projects.
It would also be great to have nightly builds for testing new features before they’re officially released on most instances.
kw blocking
I’d like something like multi-reddits. I want to be able to define specific groups of communities to show together, instead of having to either have a mish-mash of everything, or having to view each community on its own.
I might be missing this each time I check, but what is different about sublinks? Visually the demo looks the same
Is it a front-end that’s easier to contribute to? Can instances come back to Lemmy if it doesn’t work out?
It’s a replacement for the Lemmy backend. It’s designed to be API-compatible initially so existing Lemmy clients, including Lemmy-UI can just plug right in.
I see
How would this compare efficiency wise, because my understanding was that Lemmys backend was very efficient and that was a big advantage
It’s in Java, so there’s that overhead. I don’t speak for the project, but mostly, it’s less about “efficiency at all costs” and more about maintainability, being easier to contribute to / review, and having a less toxic development community. It’s got more developers working on it than Lemmy, and it’s in a language more people are familiar with (Java). It’s roadmap is also not constrained by the viewpoints of a small group of fairly, uh, controversial figures.
After the 1:1 compatibility phase is over, they’re both free to and planning to implement more features that the Lemmy devs either won’t or can’t be arsed to do.
Option to add tags when posting so that people can block/subscribe according to their preferences beyond selecting whole communities.
I’d love multi communities. So you can maybe have a community mirror posts from another. Perhaps they can do this to avoid the fragmentations
The ability to sort by controversial and most downvoted.
