Perhaps some instances or some add-ons do this. I think it should be native.

Mbin and Piefed both have this.

[–] rimu@piefed.social 8 points 1 month ago

Yup. In PieFed you can get an alert based on comments on a post, comments in reply to a comment, posts in a community, posts in a topic, posts in a feed, or posts done by a particular person. We're really gone to town on it.

Seconded. I've been wanting this for some time now. I think it is the feature I miss most from Joey For Reddit.

I think it should be native.

It will be, per Nutomic last year:

Here is the relevant issue, but no one is working on it currently.

Two weeks ago, Nutomic added a commit which "fixes #3069". Maybe this feature is coming soon?

This is a community for managing lemmy instances and communities rather than feature requests. @dessalines@lemmy.ml is the main dev, you can make feature requests on the lemmy github

[–] rglullis@communick.news 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Are we going to turn this community into a place for feature requests?

[–] Skavau@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

I'm done now. Just some thoughts that popped into my head.

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If those features are relevant to make communities grow, I don't see the issue

[–] Die4Ever@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

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

[–] Skavau@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I mean this exists on a few instances. Namely Piefed. That's fine, but obviously most people don't use Piefed. The implication here is that it should be in the base lemmy model.

[–] Die4Ever@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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
