Perhaps some instances or some add-ons do this. I think it should be native.

Are we going to turn this community into a place for feature requests?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If those features are relevant to make communities grow, I don't see the issue

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Yeah, but they'd probably be better submitted as GitHub issues instead of posts here, or in this case searching for the already existing issue

I mean this exists on a few instances. Namely Piefed. That's fine, but obviously most people don't use Piefed. The implication here is that it should be in the base lemmy model.

I agree with you that Lemmy should have it (and seems like it will in v1.0), but the devs are more likely to see our feature requests if we submit them on Github instead of as random posts in different communities

and Github makes it easier to prevent duplicate submissions

I'm done now. Just some thoughts that popped into my head.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

This is a community for managing lemmy instances and communities rather than feature requests. @[email protected] is the main dev, you can make feature requests on the lemmy github

Seconded. I've been wanting this for some time now. I think it is the feature I miss most from Joey For Reddit.

I think it should be native.

It will be, per Nutomic last year:

Here is the relevant issue, but no one is working on it currently.

Two weeks ago, Nutomic added a commit which "fixes #3069". Maybe this feature is coming soon?

Mbin and Piefed both have this.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

Yup. In PieFed you can get an alert based on comments on a post, comments in reply to a comment, posts in a community, posts in a topic, posts in a feed, or posts done by a particular person. We're really gone to town on it.
