I agree with you that Lemmy should have it (and seems like it will in v1.0), but the devs are more likely to see our feature requests if we submit them on Github instead of as random posts in different communities
and Github makes it easier to prevent duplicate submissions
The problem is just when someone in the past said “you should join !”, you were always able to just immediately go to forum x’s signup page and sign up. But if someone hears of Lemmy, and goes to join-lemmy.org, there is no way to go to a signup page directly.
People should probably stop saying "join Lemmy", and instead link directly to the site/instance they suggest
On Reddit you see tons of people giving up due to signup issues, usually due to emails I think. Instance admins should really double check their process and make sure it's all working often.
And the app devs too, if you can signup through the app gotta make sure it works on instances with captchas/email verification/etc
The benefit to a forum is that posts with new comments move to the top. If a Reddit/Lemmy post gets a single new comment it may or may not be seen again by anyone except the OP or of the comment was a reply then to the op of the replied comment.
Lemmy does have this actually
New Comments: Bumps posts to the top when they are created or receive a new reply, analogous to the sorting of traditional forums

Yeah, but they'd probably be better submitted as GitHub issues instead of posts here, or in this case searching for the already existing issue

So many upvotes too, that's crazy
Mostly this. Some people might want a few accounts but those would be hardcore users.
the password/cookie should still work even when awaiting validation, password is set before the email is sent
maybe I'm misreading what you're saying, but we already have this, works the same way as Reddit

the Summit app does it too
I'm not a Lemmy dev (well I've made a couple of small commits lol), but this type of question can be hard to answer from the inside of a project.
It would probably be easier to answer a question more like: "Do you plan to implement feature XYZ in order to be easier to use like Bluesky?"

the apps! the app support is really great for Lemmy
Wow what a list of games lol. I loved Anachronox, that game is underrated
Group B starts in 6 hours!
Group C in 2 days and 6 hours, Group D in 3 days and 6 hours
I would be interested to see if the Reddit crowd is more receptive to Mbin or PieFed

and then there's the "Active" sort, which is kind of a compromise
Nice.
WTF
