We’ve got a lot of Lemmy app options rolling out soon—it’s exciting!

What do you wish was better about the current way you browse Lemmy, and what features do you hope to have down the road?

The ability to block or blur-out posts and comments from a custom list of servers and not just specific users. The second some admins/mods give up on toning down the edgy "debaters" I don't want to deal with any of that. Though I feel this would fit more as a Lemmy feature and not just a client one.
As someone else suggested, keyword based filters, both for comment/post content but user names and link URLs.
An OLED-friendly pitch black color theme.
Swipe controls would be a really lovely one, like what they had in Apollo. Made it real easy to hide|downvote<->upvote|favorite instead of aiming for tiny touch buttons while reading with one hand.
The ability to save a local copy of posts in case an instance goes down or if one's internet is spotty, especially for servers offering useful knowledge.
Cleanly separated history, subscriptions and bookmarks between accounts. This one annoyed me in RIF. I couldn't keep a list of favorite subreddits per account.
Muted video/GIF autoplaying while scrolling would be great, but I understand that one's probably a pain to get working efficiently.

Yes, basically I just dream of seeing Apollo Redux for Lemmy/Kbin on Android and with strong content/server filtering. 😅 I'd absolutely spend 10-15$ on that.
