I'd also like to see the voting be more like Lemmy in the sense that if a comment has 4 likes, and 1 dislike, you can see that it has 4 likes, 1 dislike, and an overall score of 3. Whereas now, you're using reddit style of showing the likes. Which is just the 3.

Although, speaking of reddit, the one thing I do like is that they have overall karma. Post and comment scores in the profile. THAT I like.

I'd also like to do away with this grey box that minimizes the comment until you click to expand. Or maybe an option to just always expand everything.

I'm going to either be your favorite user with requests in the short term, or your hair pulling out frustrating user. It just depends on how much is on your plate, and how easy these fixes are. As I have no idea if I'm asking you to push a button, or write 17,000 pages of code by hand. It's probably somewhere in between. But I have no context for how difficult it would be for you to get rid of the grey box, or make an option to do so.

Previously I went from newborn baby to elderly man on earth....or we'll call that reddit. Who in 2022 was in the 1% of karma for the entire site of reddit. Then I became a newborn baby crawling 4 months ago on Lemmy. We'll call that the moon. I got somewhat of a grasp on the fediverse as a whole. I may not be an expert, but I know enough to figure out some basic things.

Then I heard that you guys are able to integrate with peer-tube, and I could use one account here on piefed for Lemmy, Peer-tube, Pixelfed, Mastodon, probably a few others I forget. And so now I'm like a new born baby crawling again here......on mars. Ok, my planetary analogy doesn't quite work, but you get the jist.

So yeah, I'll be pointing out things that are like the rough edges, without any context for how difficult that is to fix. I'll also be posting with questions for things that I may just be niave on how to do the thing, and piefed is very very undocumented on search engines. So I can't just search it. And I'm sure as I look into peer-tube, and mastodon integration, I'm sure I'll have questions.

OH! And I have ideas. Like you know how you can sort by "Local" and "All" and "Subscribed"? Well what if each user can create lists of things to sort by. Like a pulldown menu. And things could be named whatever we want. And you could put things in multiple lists.

For example, Maybe Nintendo just had a Direct at 11am eastern for whatever reason. And I'm at work. I don't want to come into contact with anything Nintendo related. Well, seeing as I know that's an issue on a recurring basis, I've created lists to sort by. I have one list called "Subscribed", and it's just as it sounds. Then I have another list "Subscribed - Nintendo" (as in Subscribed minus Nintendo). And I've already added every single community in my subscribed list EXCEPT for anything Technology, or Video Games, or Nintendo related. So when I scroll by Subscribed - Nintendo, I can see pictures of cats. I can see news stories. I can see comic strips.....but I've excluded any communities I think will lead to spoilers. And since it's user based, each individual user can set it up for themselves in their settings to cater to their interests and needs.

Maybe I just want to focus on the war in Ukraine. Maybe I have 8 or 9 communities I follow from across the fediverse. Well if I click the list I've created with JUST the Ukraine communites, that's all I'll see until I switch to a different sorting list.

Do you think this is possible?
