None that matter. Lemmy doesn't have flair or awards or live chat or NFT avatars or any of that bullshit. And that's not a bad thing.
Post and user flairs would be nice, it's helpful in certain community types.
The rest though, I'm fine without
Flair is nice. They remind me of old school "signatures" on forums. Awards can also be nice, but I would prefer those more like accolades in CSGO; marking posts as helpful or funny or whatever with a little icon. Not random, arbitrary things you pay money for.
Most of the things Lemmy doesn't have that Reddit does are the things only added to monetize. They could be repurposed for a more practical use on Lemmy and that would be great.
Lemmy is basically reddit in 2010, which is awesome
flairs would be really helpful though. i can filter for what I'm specifically looking for, or filter what I don't out, if there's flairs for that
