It seems I often don't get stuff in my inbox that should be there. Like direct replies. But honestly, I'd also like to get notifications for sibling posts or replies to replies and so on. I just want to subscribe to that discussion.

Another thing is that sometimes eternity forgets where I was doom scrolling, and it takes me forever to get back to that point. I probably just clicked away from the feed or closed all my apps.

Edit: Maybe with a bell button. It's simple and gives control and it's okay to not use it. In the settings you can say also enable the bell when you like sum. Afaik activity pub supports granular subscribing.

i wish people would stop complaining about leftists and linux discussion in general. i guess it makes me a hypocrite complaining about complainers but still it's annoying.

also imo lemmy is basically reddit now (with the way .world is), with all its pros and cons. you cannot replicate something's mechanisms to the tee and expect federation to somehow transform it into this otherwordly experience.

one positive thing i can say about lemmy compared to others though is that the small amount of content forces me to spend less time, and there are less reactionaries here than other places.

I would love to stop seeing posts in other languages pop up in my feed constantly - just some type of feature to help organize the languages of each instance a bit better.

Don’t be afraid to block instances if you would like to see less politics and doom scrolling. I listen to NPR and read my local news, so I don’t need to see all that here as well. I just want gratuitous memes and good convos about nothing important with internet strangers.
