I would love to see what my favourite people are up to on Lemmy.
It could be a shortcut listed under the subscribed communities tab and it could also notify of new posts in your inbox. It would have to be implemented client side as I haven’t seen it on the site.
This feature would also drive up engagement on high quality content. Such as art or storytelling.
I did not think you could follow users on Lemmy regardless of app used.
