For example, it’s a tiny bit of a pain to quickly and cleanly access subscribed communities. There’s a “subscribed communities” box beneath the right-hand sidebar for the instance you’re in, but it seems to me like it should be a stickied item on the left-hand side of the screen, like this:
The devs are pretty hammered right now with the big influx of users. I wouldn’t bother them with feature requests in the issues section at GitHub. Need a dedicated community for feature requests which we don’t have, maybe [email protected] is the best place at this point. I have a few I’d like to put in myself.
The issues section is the correct place and should be considered to be the dedicated forum for feature requests and bug reporting. It’s designed for that sole purpose and gives instructions to issuers on how to reduce load when making a request. The devs will prioritize issues as necessary.
A Lemmy post or any Reddit-like forum in general is not good for requests since the posts will be forgotten over time unless they get cataloged on the issue tracker.
Someone should reach out to the kids there and see if they can pitch in to organize feedback for the devs
