How would you make Lemmy nicer for yourself? (beehaw.org)

Heyo, what little things with Reddit and RES have you been missing with the Lemmy UI?

For me it's been keyboard post/comment navigation (like RES) and keyboard shortcuts. E.g. I can't post this submission with ctrl + enter as I could on many other input forms.

I'm on Beehaw with a couple of subscriptions to communities in other instances. I like viewing all of the local Beehaw communities as a "front page", but I'd like my other subscriptions to show up in that view without having to manually subscribe to all of the Beehaw communities.

Does local vs subscribed view not give you that?

I think they're saying that they like using the local view as a /r/all type replacement (a view of the highest voted content across all communities). But they'd like to be able to selectively add an entire other instance to their local view.

The only way to do this today is to subscribe to every community on your main instance and every community on the other instance, and use Subscribed as a mega view... But then that ruins the Subscribed view as a selected subset.

To put it another way, I want to view all the best content across N many instances at once, so I can discover new communities.
