Please post one top-level comment per complaint. Then others can reply with ideas or existing GitHub issues that could address that complaint. This helps identify both common complaints and potential solutions.

You can also reply on !polls@reddthat.com to better organize the discussion:

I believe there are a large number of feature requests on Lemmy’s GitHub page, making it difficult for developers to prioritize what’s truly important. I propose creating a quarterly pinned post on Lemmy asking users for complaints and suggestions. This way, developers can better understand the community’s biggest pain points and what to focus on. The goal is to provide constructive feedback so developers can prioritize the most pressing issues.

Please keep discussion productive and focused on specific problems. Avoid vague complaints or feature wishes without justification. Our aim is to give developers clear insights into issues impacting users most.

    Meta: Github has a reaction feature. Issues and feature requests can be sorted by those.

    IMO, the devs could pin that information and anybody interested enough that has a github account can react and the devs could see what the community wants. There wouldn’t be a need for a recurring thread.

        It’s harder to find though. If the threads were on the README or there were an option in the admin panel to add a “feedback” button that takes you to the newest thread, it might be better. I found this thread by pure chance.
