Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.

But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.

Give me that hopium guys! πŸ’‰

I miss the tagging of users, the way to turn off css from sites, endless scrolling and that each comment and children would be marked with a color between them. Liftoff has shadowed cards, which helps. The browser experience isn't great that way.

Have you checked out kbin? It has some of those features, and you can sub to lemmy communities with it. It also allows you to follow users, which lemmy doesn't seem to do. But you can't save posts at kbin, which is something I use a lot.

Edit: literally just discovered you can save comments and posts, at least here. I don't know if that's new or if I missed it somehow.

I haven't tried kbin, I'm just getting used to Lemmy but I might give it a try next week.

so lemmy web does have colored children, are you not seeing them?

Infinite scroll is in progress https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/878, though the devs are against it and I agree with them, however they tend to be pretty chill about other users adding things if they are off by default.

I love that theyre thinking about calling out research pointing to it being potentially harmful to mental health rather then refusing to implement it or implementing it without thought

I do, but it's more prominent in the mobile apps. When I'm on a browser, they're super light. Edit: I asked why you were against infinite scroll and now I get it. The reason I want is when you go back it goes back to the first page and then I have to find where I am again, it's sort of annoying. Love Lemmy over all though, not trying to be a downer.
