Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

The forced 'inside jokes' that filled so many threads, so many times you would see a post and be able to predict the top comment and its replies. Hoping that the lack of account karma helps with that.

Ah, the ole Lemmy switcheroo.

Thanks for the gold, kind stranger.

Spez's involvement in anything anywhere. Seems to turn everything he touches into a pile of turds.

making brigading more unacceptable here than it seems to be on reddit would be nice

[โ€“] iridaniotter@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 1 year ago

That's already built-in by being able to block instances. For example, you can't see my comment right now because your instance blocked mine, presumably because you didn't want to be brigaded by communists!

Everything on that AMA

Flair would be nice, but I think Lemmy should do it its own way with hashtags. It would be cool to search for hashtags within specific communities, subscribed communities, entire instances, and all instances.

Reddit had a lot of subreddits where the users seemed to hate each other and I'm hoping that can be avoided with Lemmy. I guess with the way Lemmy works, two communities that hate each other don't have to complain about sharing the same website the way they did on Reddit.

/s

Pretty much accepted it was the end of reddit when that started appearing.... /s

That and 9gag immigrants

If lemmy can avoid the use of /s and 9gag immigrants I'll be a happy little lemonian.

Massive amounts of cross-posting / re-posting of the same memes over and over again for klout farming. It's seriously awful on Reddit.

Some way to cut down on bot spam / bot shills. The political manipulation in Reddit really grew thick 2015ish and never went away.
