Anon Mcanon Feature Request Megathread

👉 Léo Allowing unicode characters in user names would be good. A lot of people speak English as a second language and it's unfair to prevent them from using their real names if their native languahe alphabet does not conform to ASCII. I wouldn't oppose requiring an anglicized version of names as well.

Chase May How do I view the global feed? Trying to find ppl to follow but don't want to be siloed into following based on "trending"... Would love a view that I know is unfiltered...

👁️ Mbladra Better searching, especially by hashtag topics

🍶 Freeman Unique replies. Without a like button, people would resort to +1 comments, which drowns out real comments

😏 Yt L. Collapsing threads, or toggling a "collapse by default" behavior. It would make scrolling the trending page easier.

🤬 Foobar Access to the API

🌚 Nlggers @autumn It's my personal belief that the creation of filter bubbles may be one of the worst side effects of moving from anonymous BBS systems over to boards featuring persistent identity. Via an older style BBS system it was difficult to isolate yourself into a corner of overall thought via filtering of users and posts, rather discussions were simply grouped by topic/thread. At least in my view this is preferable to columns of siloed opinions or points of view.

🏕️ Autumn Option to block on a per-user basis.

🌌 Tom self-replies, also think that the circle containing the first 3 letters of your username should change to your emoji if set

📉 Bill Hiding posts that you've already thoroughly read/discussed

🎯 Gallium Oxide Hyperlinkable replies (like Twitter) and use of the browser notification API

🥨 Shruthi Idk what notifications do now but would be great to be notified when someone replies to you
