RE: What changes would you like to see in communities ?

in #hive25 days ago

Community "global" tag/niche system

I really like this idea!

Features

Many dont read community profiles. We need something visible at the top of a community channel. I know, we have the concept of pinned posts, but we need something like a profile, shown at the top of post, but isn't a post itself. Seems like a small think since yeah, pinned post, but I believe guidance and community challenge thingies shouldnt be a post. Call it an announcement board or something. Added to this a notification system to notify those who want to be notified on changed to the annoucement board.

Community types

Love these. The Journal one is fantastic. I suppose the council one as well. Who decides who are members? The moderators/admins, or is this by self service? When latter, a feature to allow moderators/admin the control is beneficial to have.

I realized that when a mod/admin fills this form, the mute reason never made its way back to the user.

I used this at first and then realised it wasn't seen by the one who should have. So I turned to a comment. Would be great of this reaction can hold more characters.

Flag post

Thats an awesome feature as well!

Yeah that's a front end change so not something I have a lot of impact on, but basically this is the rules / settings tab and it's a matter to put it more in the spotlight rather than as a sidebar

Who decides who are members?

Mods/admins, users can subscribe to communities (a follow basically) but that doesn't make them members.

Thanks
