What do you want lemmy to be? What do you hope to find here? I myself want this to be a privacy and technology focused new Reddit with rich community interaction and forming of real communities.

              Transparent moderation and logs.
Racism should be banned.
Mods held accountable to the community.
Tags for posts so it is easy to search & jump to other communities
Awards to pay the servers and highlight great content.
Light Gamification of site

Racism? Only? I think the solution is just making mandatory to at least have a bare minimum level of respect to anyone who you are talking to.

Actually I meant slurs, bigotry, transphobia, homophobia and the likes.

As a mod here, I agree. I want to see transparent logs for the good of the communities I protect and others

I think a good goal is somehow achieving democracy, as in the community can vote in new mods, but it requires so much thought on how to avoid abuse and make it less prune to manipulation. The task is daunting/

Tags are an interesting idea.

I think awards are a wonderful idea, but please only equivalents to silver, gold, and platinum. I don't want 500 awards. Also, what does getting an award mean for your account? What does giving an award mean?

Interested in what you said about gamification. What ideas do you have about that?

Snapzu com has an interesting tag feature.

True. I don't want a noisy award section. Most of them are redundant. 3 tiers of awards would be the best

Gamification - Get perks for using Lemmy consecutively for days, weeks, months. For making or creating content everyday, etc.
