First off, you’ve made a great app. Makes me not miss Apollo one bit. Best Lemmy app out there, period.
And I’m on Lemmy because I don’t wanna be on Reddit anymore. Or on X, YouTube, instagram, fashbook - all the exploitative, controlled-media, oligarch-run platforms.
I’d love if Voyager became an ever better tool for that. Give me the option to flag, block or filter out any reference to those platforms. And better yet, automatically propose / replace any posted link to those platforms with a fediverse alternative whenever possible.
Also, I’d love to get automatic context with any given link. I would love to know whether a site is reliable, what country it’s from, who finances it, what political preference it has, if it’s billionaire-owned, etc. All inline with the link itself. There’s online sources for a lot of that info - integrate them into voyager!
This age demands smart tools that make us more informed of what’s going on behind the deluge of info. Voyager could help do that.
Thanks!
Built-in automatic handling of URLs to translate them into arbitrary ones would be a neat utility feature.
