Lemmy is not the same today as it was two years ago, and the app landscape is not the same either. There are a number of key improvements that we can work together to create.
We are looking for additional moderators
This is not a traditional moderation task. There is very little in terms of moderating comments and post content. Rather, we are looking especially for people willing to put in a little work on a monthly or bimonthly basis to improve existing projects.
Updating and Automating the Lemmy Apps Directory
The Apps "metathread" directory is woefully out of date. At present, no part of it is automated. I have been manually checking each app and updating information periodically, but this has proven unsustainable. I am sure that there is someone in this community who has the technical background to update it in a fully or partially automated way.
Updating join-Lemmy.org/apps
If the community megathread here is out of date, the "official" website is a fossil. This is the number one most visible place that people find apps. It's the top result in most web searches, it falls under the umbrella of the official project, etc. This community is not affiliated with the website, but it is OSS and they do accept pull requests. Someone with basic knowledge of github and a little free time could do a lot of good here.
App reviews
I'd love for people to share some specifics about the app you use and what you love about it. Do you have screenshots of a custom layout/palette you've set up? Let's show off what lemmy apps can do!
Info about PieFed support
Some apps have extended to other platforms of the fediverse, especially PieFed. How would we like to integrate and highlight that info? Should there be a special category or list in this community? A new community entirely?
Please share your thoughts and how you may be able to contribute. Like everything on lemmy, this community is what we collectively make of it. Thanks for making it great!
