Using Reddit for years , I had come to Lemmy.

I would like to know the difference between Reddit vs Lemmy.

Like, what features Lemmy has that Reddit don’t? Does Lemmy have some features missing that already exist on Reddit?

And finally: have you heard of Libreddit yet? It has LOTS of themes, unlike Reddit, including Dracula and others.

If you’ll please tell me how can I have Dracula theme in Lemmy, I would appreciate it!

Thanks in advance,

Sincerely,

Yours,

Expert Plus

P.S. BTW, why Lemmy’s UI isn’t so look professional? I mean, it looks like Reddit’s old UI, and as for me, it’s suck, so can I have a better UI please? If so, how? Lemmy’s lite version seems to be deprecated and i didn’t find any Lemmy web apps that would be better for me. If you know one, please tell me it! Name it!

    Thanks for response :-)

    For example nutomic has creates a bulletin board - like front end for Lemmy that looks like this:

    The UI definitely 100% sucks!

    You can change your theme in settings, but there is not a huge amount of variety, mainly it is colour changes.

    Would you like to tell me how can I have Dracula theme specifically?

    Thanks in advance,

    Sincerely,

    P.S. BTW, I saw your response on Mastodon and it seems to be don’t support embed images via Markdown from Lemmy’s post at all:

      I’m not really sure, the people who run your instance would need to add it. You could run your own instance and add it yourself (this repo has some examples of custom ui themes: https://github.com/2xx04/lemmy-ui-themes).

      Yes federation with mastodon/pleroma isn’t perfect right now. I believe the devs are working on it.

          I think it just has the same themes as Lemmy.ml

          One thing that might work is if you have an android phone with Dracula theme and use the jerboa app.

          Jerboa should pick up the colour scheme from your phone (at least it does for me)

            I’m not a phone/smartphone user. I am desktop user. Any ways to have Dracula theme for web desktop version of Lemmy?
