Firstly, there is the unstoppable flood of new posts that are added while browsing "All". Although this doesn't happen when using the Jerbea app, it sometimes renders "All" unusable in the browser.

This will be resolved once websockets are removed with the next update:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3008

Secondly, the issue of the same posts being displayed for days under "Hot". There is already a pull request for this, so it has been fixed and just needs to be implemented:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3076

Now, the only remaining points for me are:

  1. Links to external instances should automatically be transformed when opened so that one can participate with the account of their own instance. For example, lemmy.world/c/memes should automatically become feddit.de/c/[email protected].

  2. Communities from different instances should be able to merge, allowing users to see the content of all communities across different instances.

What do you mean with

This will be resolved once websockets are removed with the next update

I hope it wont be removed throughout the software since its really refreshing to see updates in realtime, be it Upvotes/Downvotes, Comments, Posts etc.

If you want that functionality use new. Hot and active are for posts that are popular not for flooding the top of my screen with random posts.

They're removing it because it puts a lot of load on the servers but I'm not sure how much of it will be removed

This is a question that would need to be directed towards the devs ;) I'm not sure about that, but in its current state it's causing more trouble
