More for jerboa, but RIF had an option to confirm you want to go back/refresh feed. My palm accidentally hits the back button often, and I have to start scrolling back from the top.
Even better yet, Relay had a dedicated button that hid all posts you’d already viewed so you never had to worry about accidentally refreshing your feed as you could just hide everything and go back to where you were. It even had an option to automatically mark posts you scrolled past as read so you didn’t have to open posts that you were only going to read the title of.
easy subscribe links - like, click on it and then subscribe, not the current method (which totally functions but its cumbersome and unwieldly).
Ability to hide posts
Ways to group communities to browse at once rather than just local, all, and subscribed. A multi-Lemmy if you will.
Karma

I’m actually curious the reason why Lemmy does not have a karma equivalent.
I don’t miss it since I rarely checked my reddit karma but it does have pros and cons.

Default to showing subscribed communities, rather than local ones. De-emphasise the server in certain areas (eg community list) - I think the community is more important than the server it’s on and having it there so prominently causes confusion about it’s importance.
I can see why it has the server focus but I’d argue most people want to join a general server with a wide reach rather than something isolated.
Though this is me trying to use Lemmy as “distributed Reddit” so maybe I just don’t get it.
When i scroll on the website, the website header does not follow. Meaning if I want to go somewhere or refresh the feed, i have to scroll way up to do so. Its a bit frustrating.
My only issue is the search function to find and subscribe to communities, and links are opening up on browser and not jerboa.
Other than that I’m having a fantastic experience.
The ability to merge/join communities across instances. Right now, there’s lots of duplicated communities - which isn’t a big problem, but I feel that it’ll hinder adoption as it fragments the audience for a given topic.
Edit: also worth saying that it seems like that the if the instance hosting a community goes away, so does the community.
