Often, its asked what the fediverse or lemmy needs more of in terms of content, but are there any specific features or functionality you really feel are lacking?

I love the Old Lemmy webiste, I wish there was a way to incorporate a RES type of extension for Lemmy

I mean, it's doable now, but I think that the limiting factor is just the userbase. More developers using the platform, more people interested in writing code for browser extensions.

There is a lemmy/kbin assistant extension for Firefox, which is far, far more basic than RES, but provides one critical feature that I regularly use -- being able to view a post on one's home instance. So people have done work on these.

Also, if by "Old Lemmy", you mean mlmym, that's not merely the website. It's an alternate Web UI that instances can run alongside the regular one. My home instance does so at https://old.lemmy.today/

EDIT: Your home instance does as well, at https://old.lemmy.world/
