Not that it isn’t a great place as it is

    The resolution of the left/liberal conflict. Anarchists and Marxist-Leninists have mostly ironed out our differences to the point of at least being cordial, but liberals and the left still butt heads. Considering Lemmy is never going to not have the left, it will require either the liberals leaving, defederating, or converting to the left. I know you said no politics, but that’s really the basis of ending the toxicity that does exist here.

    Everything is politics, especially the “absence” of politics. Would love to have a bit less of (USian) partisan politics though.

    Maybe some kind of causal game.

    Canvas is pretty fun, but it ought to be possible to come up with something else, something that other places don’t have.

    Could also attempt to do content competitions. Gamedev-jam, music composition, graphics, painting etc. Just use long deadline please. No shorter than a month.

    More courtesy, listening, and empathy of the human. I have seen too many times users jump to conclusions, extremes and high levels of hatred in their words. Things that if done in person would also cause others to avoid the situations, but when done online we all give it a pass. I’m sure I’m guilty of this as well. 🫠

      I agree. Sometimes words can’t fully express what we mean because we also rely on subtle cues from facial expressions and body language, and not everyone is a good writer. I’ve realized that my partner and I sometimes misunderstand each other, but things become clearer when we meet in person.

    More happy memes, more people posting about their hobbies, more people solving problems together.

    Making it so when Mastodon users post here, they don’t shit the place up with their @s and #s.

      I think better compatibility with the Mastodon side would go a long way towards fixing the userbase / content problem.

      https://fedidb.com/

      There are 672k monthly active users on Mastodon who can’t easily interact with threadiverse. Although this is mostly a change that they need to implement

    Keeping bot posts at bay. Heed the bad example reddit set. It was once a good place until it was enshittified.
