Is Lemmy's default user interface too plain, too minimal, or too uncomfortable for you? Alexandrite's web client makes every aspect better.

Alexandrite is slick, gorgeous, and brings a lot to the Lemmy experience. I highly recommend giving it a try.

    (dev here) I hadn’t really considered it as a full replacement before, but hosting it alongside the instance like a desktop version of m.lemmy.world is something I think would be neat (at least one instance is doing that, with a custom Dockerfile because I haven’t made one yet). I’d need to add some mobile support (which I’m not against doing in the future) and some admin tools probably before it could be a full replacement, both would probably not be for a bit still because I’m still working on feature parity for normal users. Also still waiting on a Lemmy issue to be fixed before I can add image uploading which is the most basic feature the site lacks at the moment.

      Wefwef/voyager works well as a mobile interface. It only has an iOS style interface now, but it’s really good, and they’re working on an Android skin if that’s a dealbreaker

        True, I’ve been using Voyager on my phone and it’s a big improvement over lemmy-ui in my opinion.

        A beta version of the Android theme is already in as of 0.24.0! It’s still a work in progress, but Wefwef dev seems to move along at an impressive pace.
