PSA: Two major points of criticism regarding Lemmy's user experience will be addressed soon (feddit.de)

Firstly, there is the unstoppable flood of new posts that are added while browsing "All". Although this doesn't happen when using the Jerbea app, it sometimes renders "All" unusable in the browser.

This will be resolved once websockets are removed with the next update:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3008

Secondly, the issue of the same posts being displayed for days under "Hot". There is already a pull request for this, so it has been fixed and just needs to be implemented:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3076

Now, the only remaining points for me are:

Links to external instances should automatically be transformed when opened so that one can participate with the account of their own instance. For example, lemmy.world/c/memes should automatically become feddit.de/c/[email protected].
Communities from different instances should be able to merge, allowing users to see the content of all communities across different instances.

The mechanics aren't always smooth for the first subscription to a community on an instance.

Yeah, notably it pulls all(?) the old posts but not the old comments. Good enough for most use cases but kind of annoying if there were any active discussions you wanted to take part in.
