Thanks this is very useful feedback. Especially the search box in community sidebar would be very useful and easy to add. Formatting for community ids should also be easy to improve. A bit later when I have time I will implement these things, and then make a post in the Help Design Lemmy Series regarding search.

By the way basic reading is working for me in Tor browser with JS disabled. Though buttons like switching Local/All, sorting and of course forms like register, login and search are not supported. We could use contributors to help fix these things.

You can setup a Lemmy community and link it in all your project repos. Sooner or later people will show up.

In what way is the search function in Lemmy awkward to use, is there anything specific that can be fixed? You are right about subtopics, and also Lemmy normally doesnt show discussions organized by topic on the frontpage. That can be changed though with different frontends like lemmyBB.

Sounds like a variant of Doom. Now I want to play this game and shoot up the monsters.

Oh no i’m so offended 😱😱😱

Seems like a lot of effort, and then people will still keep complaining and demand more.

And would happily donate to them if they needed it.

So you are not donating anyway? It seems to me like there is a vocal minority of users who make any type of excuse for the fact that they are unwilling to donate. Instead of being honest about that, you demand from us to make more and more changes, which will piss off other users and will likely not lead to any actual increase in donations.

So you would be fine if lemmy.ml was run exactly like it is now, but without Dessalines or me taking direct actions as admins?

I am not a tankie and reject that label.

The donation amount has increased a lot after this call for donations. Previously it was only 1000 Euro per month for each of us. With my skills I could easily earn 8000 Euro per month or more working for a company in the United States.

Thanks for your support!

Dont call me tankie, its offensive.

None of the admin work on lemmy.ml is paid, its all volunteer based.

I dont want anything bad to happen to you or your family, and you have every right to live in peace in your homecountry. It is unfortunate that you have to live through that. Best of luck!

Or it never happened in the first place.

I am not a tankie and its annoying to be called like that all the time.

Thanks!
