A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

How would you make Lemmy nicer for yourself? (beehaw.org)

Heyo, what little things with Reddit and RES have you been missing with the Lemmy UI?

For me it's been keyboard post/comment navigation (like RES) and keyboard shortcuts. E.g. I can't post this submission with ctrl + enter as I could on many other input forms.

Keyword filtering from RES.

Also, equivalent of setting up and saving multisubreddits, which helps for accessing communities that are the same but across different instances.

There is an open ticket or multigroups: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818, so you might want to give that a thumbs up to show interest.

Oh, I like it! A multi-subreddit should be a must-have for a federated community like Lemmy.

It would create a simple way to lump together all these Gaming group (from different servers) into a single view. Such a feature would improve visibility and also (hopefully) reduce the amount of noise/duplicate content (ie: one trailer being reposted to each Gaming channel/server)

Ooh, I definitely agree with multireddits. I definitely want to be able to look at certain communities on the same feed without subscribing to them by default

Just curious - what sort of keywords would you be filtering out if you could?

Very common one I did would be something I wanted to avoid spoilers for. So example would be blocking "House of the Dragon" and "Fire and Blood" so I didn't accidentally see any spoilers from random posts whether it be from before the episode aired, or from book readers who had read everything.

Particularly useful for anime where most stuff is based off the manga, which manga readers are sometimes really eager to give hints at. Like "oh don't be attached this character hehehe". "Oh you're in for a twist soon."

And of course games, I'm not often getting games when everyone is talking about them the most. So I prefer to block out stuff so things can remain fresh when I get around to it.
