As a new Lemmy user, I have some suggestions to offer regarding the web user interface.
-
~~Collapsible comment threads -- something to click on in a comment to collapse that thread~~ already exists
-
Communities sorting -- ability to click headers to sort by Name, Subscribers, Users/month Posts, Comments
-
Better community identifers on posts -- Add the community identifier to the top of the post's card to give more immediate context
-
Post thumbnails -- Hide the thumbnail instead of displaying a generic image to make better use of space and avoid repeating the same graphic
-
Post outline boxes -- In the list of posts, draw some kind of outline box around each post's card for better separation
-
Post Sorting -- When sorting by All/Hot, have a setting to control how often the list refreshes to avoid unexpected post shifting while you're reading
Please feel free to add your own suggestions in the comments.

I missed that, thanks!
Hackernews also puts them on the right, variable indenting. I prefer the old Reddit approach of having them on the left, as I can scroll and not have to move left to right to collapse. But I expect new user interfaces are coming in the next few months.
