More polished apps and more fleshed out features. Lemmy has potential, but there are so many quirks right now it's like a chore to actually utilize.

Admin decided defederation is the reason I left beehaw (and by extension didn't go to lemmy.world/shitjustworks.) I get why they did it, but it was alienating in that it took away my choice to interact in communities on both sides so I had to choose a neutral instance (and eventually ended up on kbin anyway.)

Having said that, I've seen references to a mass defederation of Gab which I am less upset about.

The difference with Facebook though is they will likely bring a ton of users and having your instance defederate by default doesn't really impact a massive company coming in like it did with Gab.

I'll be interested to see what, of anything, shakes out from this.

Yes! Collapsible comments is my most painful missing feature.

I fully intend to self host once the software matures a bit, so there's that. Hopefully that comes sooner rather than later.

Wait what's the difference between the suggested auto block and you historically blocking instances without applications? Is there other criteria you use to determine the block?

Not saying I know the answer, just curious.

This is probably my most anticipated app release ever lmao

One time payment to remove ads then eventually they added a bigger monthly/annual subscription called Ultra which had some neat, non essential, perks
