    The cool thing about federation is someone could add this to their own instance

      hm. not sure if lemmy instance. any lemmy change would have to go into their main repo. not saying it can’t happen(maybe added as an option) but something else like kbin would also work.

        It’s libre, you can fork it and create your own if you want feature not in the main repo. “any lemmy change would have to go into their main repo” is not correct.

          ah sure. forking works. But then you’d have to always pull down changes from upstream and resolve conflicts, unless you don’t plan to update and gain security fixes. Lots of work for just one change.
