Hi all,

Guess it's never too early to start thinking about features we'd like to see in Boost for Lemmy!

I was scrolling down my list of subbed communities just now and reflecting that the "@(server)" part of the community names makes it harder to quickly read them (for me at least).

I know that - this being the fediverse - you might sub to two communities with the same name but on different servers (eg. Football@[server]) but I would imagine that the majority of users will just pick one and on the day to day they won't be terribly concerned where exactly that community is being hosted.

I think it'd be neat if you could select to hide the server part of the community name in Boost's list, or at least make it less prominent in the name visually (e.g. - the actual name part in a highlight colour, the server part in a grey/other colour that blends in against the backdrop).

Thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

As long as that's optional. I'd much rather know exactly which community I'm looking at.

Oh yeah, it should definitely be optional. Fully appreciate that there will be folk who really care about the federated dimension to all of this.
