I just joined from the reddit-exidus. I'm very impressed by all the hard work going into Lemmy. If you want to help fight off the next wave of the hug of death, you can support: https://join-lemmy.org/donate

It all starts somewhere, right? We'll be up to speed in no time at this rate

I'm curios to know how can I help with developing lenmy-ui. It is made with React fork, which I know very well.

[โ€“] lhx@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It'd be neat to get a bunch of themes around. The default is quite nice compared to xxddit, but options are fun :) (For example, I'd love to see a solarized dark theme)

The front-end repository is actually: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui

Edit: I suggested some changes to the default theme. Here is the link if anyone wants to take a look: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1183

Yeah, I've been there, just haven't found clear contribution instructions, will check again. Thanks!

Yeah it's a little clunky but the beauty is that the reddit we all want is a very lightweight minimalist app anyway so it's a lot easier to replicate than if they were building another bloated app like the official one

[โ€“] MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Same. It's cool to be in this early and hopefully be able to watch it grow. Now to get my SO to join too. She is a habitual lurker. I have a big mouth, go figure.

Coming from old.reddit, it's less than ideal.

[โ€“] SickandTwisted@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As another user of old reddit, I feel like the Lemmy lay-out is more like new reddit than old reddit, with the profile pics and all.

[โ€“] notun@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can disable them from the settings.

What bothers me is the site width is like 20% of my screen width. So much empty space.

Yeah I agree, it's kinda weird.

@vatlark indeed. I use Lemmy a lot. i can recommend having a look at kbin as well.

[โ€“] necrxfagivs@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Can I interact with kbin magazines from lemmy? I'm still confused about the fediverse.

[โ€“] joe@lemmy.knocknet.net 2 points 1 year ago

I'm glad I went the self hosted route for this, but I can tell federating with other servers that some of them are HURTING. Particularly Lemmy.ml. Taking a while to get subscribed to communities there.

[โ€“] oryx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Same! I'm loving it. I still hope Reddit can fix things, but I'm a permanent user here already. It's just so fun, and it being smaller is a big pro for me. Already got my best friend, who I met on Reddit four years ago, to join!
