Lemmy is certainly a lot faster than new reddit, but I prefer the aesthetic and speed of old.reddit.com and hackernews. I like the minimalism and how everything defaults to the left of the browser rather than the center. I also really enjoy how I can expand the entire text of a post without actually clicking on the post’s link.

Just my thoughts. Hoping to see more theme and front-end options emerge over time.

    I had been thinking about forking lemmy-ui and then tweaking the site to be more Reddit-like, but ran into build problems and a lack of time. But I’m still open to it.

      I took a look at lemmy-ui, but I’d much rather work on something more static and detached.
