Limit the number of posts from a community on a user's homepage
So the new stream of users from GenZedong is great, but it's flooding the homepage to the point where all you see are posts from that community. So my suggestion is to limit the posts that a community can feature on a user's homepage, regardless of how popular they are. Just pick the top 3 or top 5 most popular posts from that day and show them.

Not really a suggestion, but a "thank you" to Comrade Dessalines (wherever they are) for saving the day.

I don't see Comrade Dessalines on here anymore, but at some point they recorded an audiobook for Huey P. Newton's Revolutionary Suicide.
I had to read a portion of it for a leftist book club, but I have trouble reading (the irony is not lost on me). I usually have to struggle through, but this time I got by with a little help from my Comrade.
Thanks Dessalines!

Several subs need new moderators
I have found some subcommies that have no active moderators. They will have one or two moderators appointed, but they are either inactive or sometimes have deleted their accounts. Communism101 is one example (only mod has deleted account). Other cases, I have found the moderator(s) without posts or comments for several months. If something should be done about moderation of communities with inactive mods, at what point can we agree a mod is inactive?

Post and comment formatting
Plain text is fine for adding spacing between
lines. But if you add a URL then [www.google.com]
[www.google.com] this happens, even if you press enter between the lines
http://niceme.me/ Preview will still show the spacing there, but when you submit the post, http://niceme.me/ it will not
be there for you, http://niceme.me/
http://niceme.me/ Does the site somehow remove spacing with URLs? Is there a way to get around this issue? Do i look like a huge dummy right now?

Cycling pages
When viewing a user profile, there are "prev" and "next" buttons at the bottom to cycle through older and more recent posts. However, you can continue cycling pages infinitely past that user's final post. it's a trivial issue, but if it's easy to do, then it should be fixed

Petition to Purge Repressers: 1 Like = 1 Signature
Y'all notice the forum rules bans capitalist cops and troops, but is enforceable only upon admission?
THIS PETITION is intended for the brave Mujahideen fighters of Afghanistan. Wait, no, the anticapitalist hacktivist group, "Anonymous." No, that's not it either.
This petition is for the world-renowned communist insurgency group, "Federation against the Undemocratic Terror-states of America (FUTA)." We demand that these antifa supersoldiers discover and ban all KKKops from our humble domain.
TBH, I don't feel safe knowing psychos are cataloguing my futa, i mean, worker right's fetish.

Posting MMR
MMR = matchmaking ranking
Big brain theory understanders will accrue MMR from schooling noobs in the comment section, gaining a few points each time. Victors are decided by the people's committee of rolfstomping. Clashing of big brains, e.g. on c/leftistinfighting, are "boss battles" and subject to proportional wagers of MMR. USSR war medals are awarded to the most heroic conquests by armchair theory soldiers.
Lastly, repeat offenders of "gamer moments" or "lib takes" are obligated to "rage quit" the forum.

Should we have a way to talk online like discord for Lemmy?
I think it would be a great idea to have something like a discord chat to talk in voice chat but I know that some people do not like discord so we would need to find an alternative. Do you have any idea? And I would suggest having a new ''discord like sub'' only for this community. What do you think?

Comment "context"
Hey,
I'm new here so maybe I'm just unaware of an existing feature, but currently, when I see somebody has replied to a comment or a post in my notifications tab, I am unable to see the content to which they are responding. Instead, I just get "lorem epsum" from "whoever" at "time and date." I have to go through my recent history to try and find the context. I put context in quotation marks in the title because that feature is called context on Reddit.
Is there any way to add this? It'd be especially helpful for anybody who is active in more than one place on this site.

One cannot navigate to overview from another user’s profile
When attempting to navigate to overview (ie one’s own profile) from another user’s profile, the URL changes but the content isn’t updated.

Parties, Unions, and Otherwise should set up communities for themselves here on Lemmy
Lemmy's capable of being a central hub for all of our left needs, It would be nice if organizations would utilize lemmy in the place of facebook or reddit communities. Because we'll never suppress leftism.

primary community mod, ability to keep other mods from deleting communities
Currently, it seems any mod of a community can delete the community. This could be an issue, should a mod of a community go rogue.

'Create a Post' on the main page, so I don't have to navigate to a /c/ to post
Should work just like the posy creation screen already does, but doesn't autofill a posting location.
-
Change the URL to just lemmy.ml or at least have it redirect
Right now it just 404s which isn't good.
-
Make buttons bigger on mobile
They are really hard to click, and I'm always afraid I will misclick (I hope there is a confirmation for mod actions?).
-
What if there was an app version of this website?
I imagine it could be hard to publish, but it would be really convenient to have an apk version of this website if possible. It works just fine on mobile even in website form, but having an app is just convenient in its own way imo.

PostImages - an alternative to imgur for image hosting. Works well on mobile too.
postimages.org Postimages — free image hosting / image uploadProvides free image upload and hosting integration for forums. Free picture hosting and photo sharing for websites and blogs.
I know a lot of ppl including myself hate imgur, so this is a good replacement for now.
-
Reason for multiple meme/humor subreddits?
Right now it looks like we've got /c/fullcommunism, /c/memes, and /c/feckliberals, with the former two receiving the bulk of the posts and the latter not having any so far. Is there a reason to have multiple subs for this, such as keeping different meme topics separate?
-
Just heard about this site and wanted to make an account to say I agree with the strategy
By restricting the subs to being modded only by proven reddit mods, we can feel safe knowing there won't be any reactionaries on the mod teams. Bravo.

Creating Communism101
I'm not willing to put myself into this position of power but could someone with community management experience create a Communism101 style community on this website? I think it would help to educate our new comrades.
EDIT: I'm not sure if the site owners or users create communities so I just put this here. I hope it's okay.

Quick question
Would it be bad praxis to start taking rare and unique usernameswhich would usually be already taken? Asking for a comrade.
