More for jerboa, but RIF had an option to confirm you want to go back/refresh feed. My palm accidentally hits the back button often, and I have to start scrolling back from the top.
When people link other instances in posts or comments, it should automatically be translated to view it on your own instance instead of having to take it and search for it.
Ability to hide posts
Yea
More of an app than a platform feature, but the ability to collapse all child comments.
On Jerboa at least you can do this by tapping on the comment
True, but I mean for all comments in the thread at once.
If you tap the top comment, it also hides all of the replies under it. Am I misunderstanding what you mean by thread?
Better ways to explore the communities available. Also maybe improving the Android app ecosystem.
Custom CSS themes, for the main interface, but also maybe on a per-community basis? I liked most of what I'd see on Reddit.
easy subscribe links - like, click on it and then subscribe, not the current method (which totally functions but its cumbersome and unwieldly).
Jerboa could use a hide post option from RedReader.
Karma
/s
Iβm actually curious the reason why Lemmy does not have a karma equivalent.
I donβt miss it since I rarely checked my reddit karma but it does have pros and cons.
Karma might work on a per instance basis, but if implemented on a federation wide scale you'd have to trust every instance. It would be far too easy to artificially increase your karma with your own rogue instance just by editing the database.
