I like that you chose Sveltekit, and the project structure seems pretty good. But there's a lot to fix. The page load takes way too long (you should be using #await whenever possible), and the design is very messy.
If I may suggest, I think you should be using a UI framework. It will keep you in-line, and give you good defaults, and maybe even save you time. I feel like Carbon is a good match for this sort of app. But If you don't like it, Skeleton also seems like a good choice.
Also, imho you should be using display: flex a lot more! (or grid)
Either way, I like the initiative. I might be able to help out a little bit here and there, but I can't make any promises.
Good luck!
My coding style has always been to get out the core functionality then fix everything up, definitely not for everyone. Might be something I need to reconsider when working with others.
I love carbon, but I chose Ionic is because its very suited for mobile development. On the other hand it seems to have very severe limitations for mobile so it seems I have to pull in something else in as well.
I will, though part of the reason its slow is because its hitting lemmys backend over the network, as opposed to just a local network in a normal setup.
