Hey everyone! I'll be going through and making features for the site soon (as I've almost got my laptop back) and wanted to know if there was any features that are wanted that I dont already have noted down

I'm currently planning to do:

  • Customizable icon shapes (circle, hexagon, etc.)
  • Flairs
  • Ability to block an instance
  • Ability for admins or community mods to hide communities from the all feed
  • Community short descriptions (to show in the community list + top of sidebar)

And polls are also being worked on by snowe

Will try to get the changes merged into lemmy itself as well but they'll be released here first

No idea how hard it would be but it would be nice to have code blocks with syntax highlighting like on Github, so you could write something like

```python
def f(x):
    return x
```

and get syntax highlighted code def f(x): return x

Yeah also have that planned as one of the first things I put in since we're a coding site, forgot to put it on the list. Shouldn't be that bad since there's libraries for it
