    Ampersands. I thought it was just me but apparently not

    Edit: works fine incomments, but I keep seeing them replaced with “&” in titles.

    A way to easily find and join subs, from my phone/in the app, so I can have my own feed. I’m not willing to set my stuff up on my computer. I’ve worked in IT for over twenty years and I hate doing anything on my computer anymore and can’t get myself to even try. It’s a me problem but it didn’t exist with Reddit. From Apollo I could find, subscribe, leave subs and have my own custom feed. I’d still use Reddit instead if they didn’t kill third party apps. But they did, so I try to make this work but it’s sucks trying to see content so I just don’t spend much time here either, which is fine, I’ve taken to doing crosswords instead when I’m looking to pass some time.

    Better moderation tools. A lot of these features are nice to have, but there is no way Lemmy can grow without better moderation tools.

    Even with the tiny userbase, we’re having problems with spam and rule breaking content. Add more users and it’s going to be a mess.

    Gold. I don’t really care for the excessive awards they introduced in new Reddit, but gold in OG Reddit was a nice way to highlight and recognize really helpful or creative posts. Even though Lemmy is still pretty new, there have been folks submitting some really detailed and helpful or clever stuff, and it’s a shame that they’re going unnoticed.

    Oh, and we’re also missing an r/BestOf

    Videos. Viewing your up/downvotes. Profile posts.

    Not a feature of Reddit, but I also miss RES features: user tagging, seeing my votes on a user next to their name, advanced post filtering, and more.

      Post and user flairs would be nice, it’s helpful in certain community types.

      The rest though, I’m fine without

        Flair is nice. They remind me of old school “signatures” on forums. Awards can also be nice, but I would prefer those more like accolades in CSGO; marking posts as helpful or funny or whatever with a little icon. Not random, arbitrary things you pay money for.

        Most of the things Lemmy doesn’t have that Reddit does are the things only added to monetize. They could be repurposed for a more practical use on Lemmy and that would be great.

    A central place where everything happens. Or just the illusion of that.
    Lemmy does not feel the same between instances/servers, and that makes everything seem smaller.
    The only reason there was a small spike in lemmy users was because the competition entered phase 3 of their enshittening. Just like Mastadon lives off twitter going downhill. It’s not that the product is great, it’s just that it mimics a successful service and that service is going to shit.

      That’s why I browse “Everything” instead of restricting myself to an instance. I then block communities that I’m not interested in, and also make use of keyword filters in Sync to block unwanted stuff.
