I also think instances just need to have more sane urls. It sounds silly but like it or not branding does matter. Instances like beehaw and sh.itjust.works just rub me the wrong way during first impressions. Even some of my friends who I’ve tried to introduce to Lemmy are just like…“what the fuck kinda website are you making me go to?” I am not surprised that lemmy.world is big, partly because the URL actually sounds official.

We also need super-communities that pull in content from multiple communities/instances and a way to migrate between instances before the masses will be okay with smaller instances.

Views that show you multiple communities would be great. Let me see both major Steam Deck communities in one view.

They’re pretty descriptive: do you want a place to “behave”, or would you rather fling shit at each other?

This isn’t Reddit, you get to pick your experience. Can even sign up to more than one instance, each with different rules!

Apps do that, including some web app.

Search and migrations could be improved, though.

  I don’t just mean grouping communities client side though. I mean super-communities that a mod or admin can curate and that other people can share and subscribe to. Out of curiosity, which apps have you been using that have this feature?
