Comment on YSK if you browse Lemmy on desktop, the Lemmy Universal Link Switcher script makes browsing between instances significantly less annoying

  I am on desktop pretty much exclusively.

    I assume just via the normal desktop site? I tried that back when I very first started with Lemmy but I quickly switched to using the Voyager web app just because I like the app features and especially the post layout. I might have to give the default web interface another shot as I only tried way back when I first switched over.

      Default lemmy ui is atrocious (in my oh-so-humble opinion), though some people do like it.

      I’d recommend Photon or Alexandrite

        I use Alexandrite. It’s the closest to Sync / Thunder I’ve tried.

        I wasn’t the biggest fan, thanks for the recommendations. I’ll give em a shot.

      Whoops guess I should’ve specified, I use the Alexandrite UI instead of the default

  100% of the time I’m using an app, just like I did on reddit. Don’t even know what the desktop site looks like (jk)

  I do a lot of browsing on desktop, especially when comments need a lot of research. I use mobile a lot as well.

  Out of curiosity, how many browse on desktop?

  I only visit the site via desktop.

  I’ll browse here and there in browser on my laptop but 90+% of the time I’m using voyager

  I’m on desktop 80% of the time and use Alexandrite for its 2-column layout.

  I’m the dev of this, and I use this on the Android Firefox browser :D

  I use Voyager on mobile most of the time, but still do a little browsing on my desktop using Photon.

  It would be cool if something like this could also be incorporated into the apps

  What does Voyager do if you click on a link to another instance? Open in the browser?

  Thunder tries to resolve the link to your local instance and opens it directly in the app.
