One thing I could use is a good desktop web frontend. On desktop I’d much rather browse Reddit(old+res) than any of the clients I have found. All of the clients are missing usable keyboard navigation, or the interface is too clunky for my monitor.

Check out old.lemmy.world!
Thanks. That’s definitely the best frontend available for me.
Check if your instance supports the "old Lemmy" frontend. Something like old.lemmy.ca
I used the hide post feature on Reddit as my main way of browsing to keep topics I was done with from clogging my feed and keeping me from seeing new things.
No option to hide here on Lemmy.
you can hide read posts
On reddit, i can automatically hide posts that i have already upvoted. That keeps the frontpage full of fresh posts.
Is there a way to individually hide? I only hide the ones I've already engaged with or decided not to engage with on Reddit, not every post I see.

You can do that on Boost. Also mark as read when voting. With the hiding read selection, your feed stays clean and new.
Ampersands. I thought it was just me but apparently not

Gold. I don't really care for the excessive awards they introduced in new Reddit, but gold in OG Reddit was a nice way to highlight and recognize really helpful or creative posts. Even though Lemmy is still pretty new, there have been folks submitting some really detailed and helpful or clever stuff, and it's a shame that they're going unnoticed.
Oh, and we're also missing an r/BestOf
