MaholmireI was idly looking over the instance of Pleroma FE that I use when a thought occurred to me. You've done a wonderful job at enabling people to customize the Pleroma environment however they wish. I feel an excellent addition to the 'lists' feature recently added would be to allow people to add custom timelines.
This would effectively allow people to add specific users in bulk to appear on their list and reduce the need to have multiple instances for different interests. Instead, you have the option to create one account and add the timelines of instances that interest you and have a greater degree over your experience.
If there are people that you find annoying, rather than mute them you can simply exclude them from your timeline. I feel this would have the potential to be huge and bring Pleroma to the forefront as a strong alternative to Mastadon. While existing tools such as mute and defederation will help prevent this feature from being used as a vector for harassment.
Should that be a concern for the implementation of this feature then you can apply similar measures as you have with following requests by allowing instances to set whether they will allow people to openly import their timeline or send out a request to the instance administrator to do so. This will significantly a bad actor's ability to abuse the feature while still allowing it to be used in the way it was intended.
Figured I would share it here to see whether anyone else may have any feedback or impute on the implementation of the suggested feature.
