That’s a really nice alternative interface for desktop! I wonder if other instances implement it other than lemmy.world? It’s cool that that that instance admin has, though. It looks superb.
Comment on Anyone else moved from kbin to lemmy?

I personally recommend a.lemmy.world if you’re going to use an alternative frontend.

You can use Alexandrite regardless of instance by using the official webpage for it: alexandrite.app . That’s what I’m using right now.
You’d add your instance link after the /, so in your case it’s alexandrite.app/feddit.uk . You’ll automatically be redirected if you log in anyways though, which is nice.

We run them! Cole set them up and I try to keep them updated ASAP based on GitHub alerts.

wow alexandrite looks beautiful

Old habits die hard for me and I’m glad they’ve got mlmym on old.lemmy.world, it’s my default on the desktop now
If anyone is doing the same and misses the community bar customisation from RES, I cobbled together a little userscript to do this
Hopefully someone else finds it useful too

Right? Alexandrite is the best UI to me too. Its best feature is you don’t have to change page while opening posts. It just opens in one side of the page.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Alexandrite is exactly what the reddit redesign should have been had the company given a single shit about actually making a user friendly desktop experience.
