Wow! A lot has changed since the launch of Summit for Lemmy. So much has been done yet it still feels like the app is nowhere near complete.

The original roadmap post is stale and it’s grown too long. This post cleans up the roadmap and only contains features yet to be done at the time of writing.

Here we go:

  • Mod actions. (some have been added but not all of them)
  • Create & edit communities
  • Notifications/Push notifications
  • Settings for anything configurable. This one is ongoing because user requests for more customizations will keep pouring in.
  • Support for locales other than English
  • NSFW mode
  • Offline mode (view posts, comment, vote all offline with an offline engine that tracks everything and performs the actions once network is established).

Specific user requests:

  • Add support for tablets.
  • Support sending content to the app to use for later.
  • Add option to reordering comment/post format tools
  • Support switching instances to any instance (even if you are not sign into that instance).
  • Add a way to customize the comment menu (the menu that has the overflow, add comment button and upvote/downvote buttons).
  • In the multi-community build, indicate which communities you’ve subscribed to. Also list subscribed communities maybe by default or have some way to only see subscribed communities.
  • Add “reason” for mod actions.

Stretch features (nice to have but I need to do more research)

  • Possible integration with mastodon/? (needs research)
  • Support kbin?

Completed

  • Custom themes. I’m still accepting themes. See this post for how to submit a theme. You can make a post here or just comment on one of the release posts to let me know.
  • All the search (search profiles, search text, search comments, search posts, etc etc)
  • A button that will move you to the next or previous top comment
  • Change default sort order
  • Adjust text color (specifically the contrast)
  • Add hyperlink button to comment/post text editor
  • Setting to only show top level comments (with options to expand children as needed)
  • Changing the font. Changing font size.
  • Client side sort modes
  • Custom community feeds. Eg. group multiple communities into one feed and view them together.
  • Switch account within a post while keeping position
  • Make post/comment scores change color on vote. This might be a subjective change so might be a new setting?
  • Text searching on the current page.
  • Draft & save comments and posts
  • Left hand mode
  • Show instances for both posts and comments if the user is not from your instance. Also add a setting to toggle this.
  • Add setting to make the bottom bar always visible
  • Add option to disable history
  • Setting to hide bottom bar, roll options to overflow menu.
  • Add settings to customize the bottom bar.
  • Toggle to enable/disable hidden posts
  • Change sort order of comments on a user’s profile
  • Import/export settings
  • Share comment/post as image. (Eg. share a clean image of a post to another social media site such as discord without needing a link)
  • Change gesture action colors to be action specific
  • Add actions from the top bar into the overflow menu.
  • Add upvote percentage somewhere. (Added both in the detailed view and also as a setting that can be enabled for comments and posts separately).
  • Add setting to highlight posts/comments made by you.
  • List local communities somwhere (maybe in the instance info screen)
  • Client sided account specific settings (Eg. designate an account as a NSFW account)
  • Add setting to tie theme to account
  • Add option to display user profile images
  • Option to choose the directory where images get saved
  • Add option to set the view type for a community instead of everywhere
  • Aielman15@lemmy.world

    Relay for Reddit refugee here. I’ve tried five different Lemmy apps and, so far, this is the first where I almost felt like home.

    I’m very excited for the roadmap, especially for custom community feeds (i subscribe to different communities to “keep a tab” on them but it’s turned my feed into a mess, and less active communities often get buried by active ones) and more NSFW options (I don’t want to block NSFW posts from communities I trust, but I’m forced to turn NTSW off because I don’t want to see porn in All/Local).

    If I may, I’d like to suggest a feature.

    On relay, when writing a post/comment, if I accidentally quit/go back, and then resume writing, the text message gets saved so that I don’t have to type it again. Especially when I’m writing long posts/comments, knowing I’m not losing progress if I accidentally tap the wrong button eases my mind. Would it be possible to introduce a similar feature on Summit?
