Honestly, PieFed solves so much of that - like combining all comments across all cross-posts, and Topic Feeds, which are user customizable and shareable, and showing the sidebar text with all the rules and such below each and every post in a community, not only on the community page itself, plus adding flairs (user and post), polling, a true blocking ability for all users from an instance, blah blah etc. but the chief thing is that it keeps growing so quickly. Python is just that much easier to code in than Rust, I suppose, or else the devs are just super good (or both?:-).
I lost hope for Lemmy long ago and almost decided to leave it, even if there was nowhere else to go. I am so glad to have found PieFed.
Even then if I want to learn about certain things that are barely talked about here, I have to go back to Reddit. I lurk now but that is where the people have decided to share their content, so if I need specifically it then that is where I need to go to read it.
