The one really big thing I'd like to see is just simply having lemmy-ui and other front ends translate links to other communities into a link that keeps you on your instance. So if an lemmy.ml user links to /c/technology then a user on lemmygrad.ml would be linked to lemmygrad.ml/c/technology@lemmy.ml instead of going to lemmy.ml where they're not logged in.
Then you could seamlessly follow links and interact around the "threadiverse" without doing the awkward switch back to your own instance to find the community so you can interact with it.

Sweet. That and maybe shortlinks that have /c/ work like /r/ does on reddit.
What i'm really dying for is RES style keyboard shortcuts
I had it setup so nicely, i would use c and v to go up and down threads, and shift+c to collapse things and open expandos
It was honestly insanely convenient, and is by far the biggest problem with lemmy for me. Very willing to pay for this.

Biggest thing lemmy devs need right now is more devs, not money (though money doesn't hurt). If you could find someone new and convince them to work on it (possibly with a bounty) that would probably be more helpful.
