    • What features would you like added to Lemmy itself?

    Jump

  • Some sort of automatic down-sampling feature before posting, for images, video and maybe audio.

    DeltaChat has this built in to minimise file-sizes before posting.

    Something like this would reduce plenty of bandwith/processor use/carbon etc. Increase speed of loading pages.

    With an option to click to see the original media too.
