/u/whupazz is working on a reddit compatible api for lemmy, meaning most 3rd party apps should work with little or no modification. See it working with RedReader already: https://imgur.com/a/IF5HYGz

BoostForLemmy? 👉👈

The dev of Jerboa based it off of Boost for Reddit. The only way you would get an exact copy is if the dev of boost decided to move over to Lemmy. Doubtful, but possible.

I was about to say to the post as a whole “eh, its not that bad, idk what you’re talking about”, and then saw this, I actually used boost for like 4 years lol

Boost is great! A lot of the 3rd party apps are lovingly made. Stinks that Reddit decided money was more important than a user-base. But now we have Lemmy, which hopefully won’t even be able to be like that.

That would be absolutely splendid. Although i have to say i’m extremely impressed by the website UI. It’s super fast and way better than most websites i’ve used recently.

Probably because it doesn’t load a bunch of trash along with the content.

Yeah hopefully it becomes better. The biggest problem for me so far is the choppy scrolling.

Haha seriously tho now it seems we’re getting a few more developer contributions, so hopefully its UX can improve.

Honestly, I feel so bad criticizing without contributing, but at the same time, I don’t have any relevant skills with which to contribute.

It’s no problem to do that, I welcome criticism of all our UIs! I just prefer that it’s actionable, specific, and on our issue tracker so that devs can work on them.

Don’t feel, as long as it’s constructive and we all are at an understanding that devs may take some time to acknowledge them (tons of prior work), it’s fine.

Of course you could always throw the a couple of cents if you got the chance, nobody minds being invited a coffee.

Only one of them has a quintillion dollars to spend on making their shit look good. I’m less forgiving of that one.
