Something I made quite extensive use of back on Reddit was the ability to wrap related subreddits into a single multireddit, which I could then browse as I wanted.

e.g. a multireddit for tech related subreddits, another for memes of all varieties, and so on

Just curious if there were any plans to implement this.

Dessalines and I are busy with other things, so we wont be able to work on this anytime soon. But contributions are always welcome :)

On a related note, is there any page or document showing what's actively being worked on and what features to look forward to? I am expecting the answer is no, since I know this is all voluntary work. But if it exists, would love to check it out and see what you're up to :)

Our github profiles are pretty active, and can show what things we're working on specifically.

I know nothing about the codebase, but being a developer myself, I’m curious to hear how complex you’d think the task would be, and how much domain knowledge of the fediverse / activity pub would be required.

It's definitely a major feature which requires changes to most parts of the code. So maybe a week or two for the initial implementation (or more if you are unfamiliar with the stack). I don't think these multilemmys would have to federate at all, so you don't have to know anything about Activitypub.
