What are your most wanted features? (self.alexandrite)

It makes it easier to prioritize what I work on if I know someone's wanting a feature. What sort of stuff do you wish Alexandrite had? Especially talking about missing features from the main UI.

If you can, please provide some explanation for why you would like that feature and what problem it would solve for you (unless of course it's a feature that Lemmy has already but Alexandrite doesn't support yet). Knowing what problem you want solved helps me work with you to brainstorm ideas for the best solution (see the XY problem).

Love the interface! It seems to have solved all of my remaining issues with Lemmy in one gorgeous package!

I'd love to be able to:

  1. Pin the left hand side bar so that it is always visible (much like the right-hand one)
  2. Be able to favourite communities so that they appear at the top of the list in the left hand side bar.

And if these two things sound remarkably like "new" Reddit, then you're right... I'm unashamedly a fan of that layout and having it here would make me feel right at home :)

Thanks again!
