And as usual, the top comment related to Lemmy is people complaining about bad UX
Let’s keep guiding them to better UX

Like PieFed’s:-)
What mobile app works nicely with it?
None, that’s the main issue. They are working on a Thunder fork
I don’t think PieFed has mobile apps yet, but I believe they’re planning on forking Thunder for Lemmy.
Yea, that’s a problem, I feel without a decent mobile app it would be a worse UX for many users. Until they have mobile app options I’ll keep directing users to something like Voyager for mobile or phtn.app for desktop
For recommendations to people on Reddit, PieFed’s app support is “coming soon”, but if you want more details personally, they are here.
Some users want apps, and it’s a strict requirement. I don’t get it, but they are quite vocal about it
Hey, Firefox (& even Chrome) is an app!:-P
Do you have any sense as to how true that holds for the actual content creators? I suppose at some point it may not matter, if e.g. they go where the users are.
I don’t disagree at all, but I also think it’s important to keep the conversation focused on the benefits. eg: “I’m happy to trade Reddit’s UI for a platform that doesn’t encourage toxic behavior” (and so on).
EDIT: The threadiverse will not ever be Reddit and we won’t be able to please everyone, I think it’s important to portray confidence in the platform and not get bogged down defending the (less important) flaws.

I’ve been trying the Photon/Voyager approach, the issue is that some people despise Photon and modernist interfaces with a passion, there’s a comment on that thread I had to link to old.lemmy.zip
I’ve been focused lately on changing some UI aspects of Photon to please both sides, compact mode is now comparable to old reddit (while looking good) and it’s the default. People who like them can switch to the cozy interface on their own.
Great!
I don’t get why someone would hate Photon. It’s a great interface, beautifully constructed and organized. Overall, great to use.
Wait, are you the real Blaze?
Interface are always a very debatable topic.
Well, yes, I mean I’m the one people usually see around here, not sure if that’s what you mean by “the one”
Nevermind. I was using a different app so I didn’t recognised you.
Reminds me of this:
You watch Jehtt too? Amazing guy! I used to help with captions to his channel. Too bad the Discord server for that died…
Heck yeah his videos always had me laughing on the floor I loved the one where knuckles brought in a knock off sonic and Silver yelled at him 🤣
Aw dang that’s too bad about the discord server.
Are admins seeing an increase in applications? This seems fairly big!
Dbzer0 admin here. I’ve definitely noticed an increase in “spam” applications. Mostly stuff with applications that are blatantly wrong. Like just saying “yes” (multiple applications just had this???), “GOOGLE”, an ad (to us) and one time, somebody literally just copy and pasted our own text to us (image below)
Though i’ve noticed a lot of good users applying too, coming from reddit. I think dealing with spam is fine if it means we get a lot of new users, and a fresh perspective to lemmy.
I am here due to the post. So there is that.
