Firstly, there is the unstoppable flood of new posts that are added while browsing "All". Although this doesn't happen when using the Jerbea app, it sometimes renders "All" unusable in the browser.

This will be resolved once websockets are removed with the next update:

Secondly, the issue of the same posts being displayed for days under "Hot". There is already a pull request for this, so it has been fixed and just needs to be implemented:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3076

Now, the only remaining points for me are:

  1. Links to external instances should automatically be transformed when opened so that one can participate with the account of their own instance. For example, lemmy.world/c/memes should automatically become feddit.de/c/memes@lemmy.world.

  2. Communities from different instances should be able to merge, allowing users to see the content of all communities across different instances.

I mean, you dont have to do it personally. Just someone from your server has to tell the local server "hey, im interested. Please give this server a feed" and then everyone on that server now gets a feed. You can also use the community search and just select all and then it will search out and then you can subscribe from that page. It's basically a master list of communities. For instance https://lemmy.world/search/q/pokemon/type/Communities/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1 then everyone on lemmy.world now has to deal with an influx of pokemons...

I might be misunderstanding but it basically works the way you want it to work but in a different way than you want it to work.

The mechanics aren't always smooth for the first subscription to a community on an instance.

Yeah, notably it pulls all(?) the old posts but not the old comments. Good enough for most use cases but kind of annoying if there were any active discussions you wanted to take part in.
