I know that the purpose of Lemmy is to be split into instances and stuff to stay independent or whatever, but - imo - if it really wants to become a true alternative for Reddit it needs one place for users to land. Something like "LEMMY.COM" where you can see all instances + all communities, where you can log into your instance, maybe even log into more than one instance at once (let's be honest, who doesn't have a separate porn account these days lul)

The thing is, most of us used Reddit until now instead of Lemmy because Reddit did the overall browsing experience a lot better. Yeah it needed the help of third party apps for that, true, but I could just open reddit, look at r/all or my subscribed subreddits and be done with it. Being on Lemmy feels like "oh yeah, this is a great idea, but wow it is very inconvenient to look through this place"

(Btw, I LOVE the lemmy logo!)

So basically what you are asking for is a... client?

I do not have much technical knowledge, I can only describe my thoughts on "that's how I think it should look and work" and not "that's how it could work from a technical pov"

So it's possible that I ask for a client? You mean like what third party apps do for reddit?

You can create an issue on lemmy repo and make a good description or even a prototype of your idea. That sometimes helps developers to implement that.
