This is an opportunity for any users, server admins, or interested third parties to ask anything they'd like to @nutomic@lemmy.ml and I about Lemmy. This includes its development and future, as well as wider issues relevant to the social media landscape today.

Note: This will be the thread tmrw, so you can use this thread to ask and vote on questions beforehand.

They probably wont implement due to potential harrassment from abuse. But you can follow users using Open RSS feeds in meantime. Here's your feed for example:

How would this open you up to abuse? Having a community with the same name as your username auto created where only you can post new threads wouldn’t open you up to abuse. But it would greatly benefit interoperability throughout the fediverse. Lemmy is currently the least interoperable fediverse software while also being the second most used. I also think its the most valuable since up/down voting and threaded replies makes the most valuable information the easiest to come by and follow. So it would be great for the best fediverse software to also be better at playing nice with the rest of the fediverse
