I would really love to see a light theme. The current theme is absolutely gorgeous, but I'm one of those weirdos that just likes light themes better. During the day the eye strain on the dark theme is a bit much.

I second this.
Is there any plan to add the markdown image functionality of the base U.I, either the small picture icon to prompt an upload or the ability to paste an image into the post/comment box to have it upload and inster with the proper markdown?
Also any thoughts on adding the archive prompt for a url post?

Image uploading is something I really want to add because it's the biggest missing feature and I think it could be done better than the official UI does it. Unfortunately I can't add it quite yet because I'm not able to upload images unless I proxy them through Alexandrite's servers (which is what Voyager does). This is the issue on Lemmy's Github that I'm waiting on.
I was thinking of adding the archive links around the time I add the image uploading.

Thanks! It's been getting a lot of attention lately which is exciting and scary. This is by far the most attention any of my side projects have gotten, and it's pretty cool to see so many people enjoying something I made!
Makes perfect sense, didn't see it on the feature request so thought I'd pop it in.
Attention well deserved you've made something terrific.
I have accounts on multiple lemmy servers (2 main ones, and one "alternate" one. I haven't decided which main one to use exclusively). I'd like to be able to swap between them the way I can on the various android apps.
I was planning on implementing this soon! Because they are all pretty related I wanted to do an account/profile switcher at the same time as I also:
- put the instance in URLs like Voyager does so links to Alexandrite are sharable and don't require you to be logged in to the same instance as the person sending the link
- support self-hosting Alexandrite
Great! Thanks!
Default comment sorting would be awesome. I usually sort comments by "top", and having to press that every time I load a new post is kind of annoying
I built a FFox add-on called Mullem which basically simulates a multi-reddit like experience. It's quite basic so I'd love to see the same functionality in Alexandrite :)
