  • Something which notifies you whenever a new comment or reply is made to a selected post/comment, so that you can keep track of any new conversation.

    Something like this would be awesome as a core Lemmy feature IMO. It would essentially turn a post (or maybe any comment tree?) into a matrix style room. Lemmy is actually decent for long term discussion (e.g. helping someone with a problem), but not if there are more than two people involved.



  • I notice there’s no Lisp on your experience list. I think you better do CL or Scheme (or Emacs even?) instead. :P

    Learning lots of different languages is great. Lisp, Haskell, and Assembly especially changed the way I think about code in any language.

    I like Rust, but if you did Haskell, the type system is going to feel like a limited version of that. The borrow checker is a cool, unique thing to try out though.

    Nim is interesting, but I don’t think it has any unique features that would encourage me to try out. Zig is another one that might be worth considering. It felt a bit like C with Lispy metaprogramming, but it’s been a while since I did anything with it.
