Lemmy needs to allow communities to ignore the votes of non-subscribed users. It should be the default setting that a community owner can override. But it will never happen. So the lemmy ecosystem will remain not very diverse in its user base unless there are multiple clusters of federated instances that are not (widely) federated with the other clusters.

Hopefully Sublinks can get to production and implement this.

This is what people didn’t want. But it was inevitable that eventually that people would stop complaining about the newest iteration of this.

Yup. This is why Discord/Whatsapp/Telegram are so popular, for better or worse.

I wish that gained some traction.

I also wish it had a name that is easy to intuit a pronunciation.
