This is an opportunity for any users, server admins, or interested third parties to ask anything they'd like to @nutomic@lemmy.ml and I about Lemmy. This includes its development and future, as well as wider issues relevant to the social media landscape today.

Why are Lemmy devs so opposed to a Follow Thread feature? (The feature request is always immediately closed on github with the message: not planned)

Users being able to opt in to receive updates whenever a thread receives an edit to the post, a new comment, or a reply to a comment thread would be extremely useful.

Why do believe they are opposed to having this feature?

Github issues about it are immediately closed

That seems to me like it'd be a part of notifications, and I'm not sure where you're getting that I would be opposed to it?
