I want to suggest adding a feature that lets user post on their profile rather than communities
Also i is live chat possible here in future?
I don’t think that “live chat” is fitting for Lemmy. It is an aggregator in the first place. There are already other FOSS services for live chatting, such as Matrix. IMHO, adding such a feature to Lemmy would be out of the scope of the project and probably result in a bad and dysfunctional implementation.
I agree that lemmy shouldn’t take it on itself, but I do think deeper integration into other foss systems is not a bad plan. Being able to integrate a matrix instance directly with a lemmy instance would be fancy and I think exploring stuff like that further could be the key to finally getting us beyond just seeking parity with reddit.
if you fill in your Matrix handle in your profile settings and so does the person who wants to contact you, the private messages between the two of you will use Matrix.
What is this, reddit? No thank you.
If you want it that badly, implement it and send a pull request, or maintain a fork.
Live chat doesn’t really fit though I don’t see why it would have large storage requirements. Posting on profiles might be a good idea though.
Either of those would be a general Lemmy thing, not specifically lemmy.world which is just one instance.
