MODERATORS
You can search for communities and subscribe to them. Then you can select "subscribed" instead of "local" or "all"
I think what theyre getting at is lemmy doesnt really have a good way to discover sublemmies. A lot of the subs ive found were through all when they just happened to pop up now and again rather than specifically searching for a particular topic. Thats not a very fast way to find new communities. Which you could argue reddit doesnt do a great job of it either but lemmy is in a position where it cant afford to be inefficient.
That's the same way I found subreddits on reddit, how do you search for anything other than subreddit names on Reddit?
More granular moderation tools.
But in the last dev AMA they made it clear that wasn't a priority. Honestly it killed a large chunk of excitement I had about Lemmy. Without ways for mods to keep the communities free of shit heads the communities won't be sustainable and will stop growing.
The mod tools are pretty basic but the essential stuff is already there IMO. The only thing that I've been missing is a modmail or the ability to remove comment chains. And Lemmy is still small enough that I can do it all by hand.
