easy subscribe links - like, click on it and then subscribe, not the current method (which totally functions but its cumbersome and unwieldly).

More for jerboa, but RIF had an option to confirm you want to go back/refresh feed. My palm accidentally hits the back button often, and I have to start scrolling back from the top.
Even better yet, Relay had a dedicated button that hid all posts you'd already viewed so you never had to worry about accidentally refreshing your feed as you could just hide everything and go back to where you were. It even had an option to automatically mark posts you scrolled past as read so you didn't have to open posts that you were only going to read the title of.
user notes/tags editable anywhere the username shows, and shown next to the username thereafter.
User and post flares!
Ability to hide posts
Custom CSS themes, for the main interface, but also maybe on a per-community basis? I liked most of what I'd see on Reddit.
Hopefully a multi-community (multi Reddit type) feature
More of an app than a platform feature, but the ability to collapse all child comments.
Ways to group communities to browse at once rather than just local, all, and subscribed. A multi-Lemmy if you will.
Jerboa could use a hide post option from RedReader.
Karma

Iβm actually curious the reason why Lemmy does not have a karma equivalent.
I donβt miss it since I rarely checked my reddit karma but it does have pros and cons.
Karma might work on a per instance basis, but if implemented on a federation wide scale you'd have to trust every instance. It would be far too easy to artificially increase your karma with your own rogue instance just by editing the database.
Better ways to explore the communities available. Also maybe improving the Android app ecosystem.
