I’m not currently developing a Lemmy app, and I have no plans to, so this is not a market research post for myself. If anything, I’d like it to be a resource for existing developers to see which features the community most wants!

So, putting aside regular features (e.g. things that the Hard-R app already does), I’m specifically wondering about which less common features you all want?

Here’s of one of mine:
I’d like to be able to limit my usage of an instance to a specific account. For example: I never want to post to LemmyNSFW from my main account. That’s what my alt is for. So I want to be automatically switches to my preferred account per-instance when I interact with it (or at least give me the choice to switch on-the-fly when composing a post or comment).

    Mark posts as read on scroll. It was the best feature of Sync and as far as I’m aware only Connect for Android supports it. Shortly after it got that feature I switched to iOS and haven’t found any others that have it.

    There are so many posts, like photos, that I get the gist of just by scrolling past that I’m not interested in interacting with and yet there is no quick way to clear them from my feed. Lemmy still doesn’t have a really high turnover rate for content so when I come back later I have to scroll past tons of posts I’ve already seen to get to anything new.

    If anyone knows of an iOS or web app with this feature let me know please. I’m using Memmy right now and it’s pretty good other than missing this.
