Kind of like if there was a Lemmy Star Trek server and it hosted a bunch of communities with different topics that are all related to Star Trek?
The architecture is in place to do what you're talking about. Just needs the right people to adopt the approach over time.
That's just a function of how the host server sorts posts. ~~I am fairly sure that functionality could be implemented without the need to even fork the version.~~
You can go to your user setting and select new comments and do this now.
Ah, I see what you mean. I feel like that adds a lot of moderation overhead though because it needs people there to stop nefarious grave-digging.
Cheers, still use forums for very granular info. I think it's more of a scale issue. If you put the volume of users on these niche forums as are on reddit/lemmy, I think the multi-post nonsense would ensue. I remember having to tell a lot of people to use the search in forums. Sounds similar.
