Does logging in work for you all? I'm on my phone with desktop mode on and it redirects to a blank page after logging in

It is beautiful! Now all we need is RES and dark mode :)

This is so awesome.

I might be missing it, but is there a side-bar to view my subscribed communities? I think on old.reddit, there was a pop-out bar on the left side of the window (but that may have been from RES).

Damn that is amazing. I wonder if we will also see some kind of RES equivalent for Lemmy

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I have a keyboard navigation userscript here -> https://github.com/vmavromatis/Lemmy-keyboard-navigation

However it only works with the normal Lemmy site. I will adjust it for MLMYM too. Feel free to submit a PR too!

Feedback always welcome!

I think the only thing that's really missing for me and not just from old.lemmy.world but from the normal Lemmy UI. The ability to have clicking on links open in a new tab. I don't know why but I just really like having stuff open in a new tab so I can then come back to exactly where I left off.

Regardless this looks crazy good.

Middle clicking a link (clicking with the mouse wheel) or ctrl clicking, opens links in a new tab.

Middle clicking also closes a tab of you middle click on it.

Bruh this is literally reddit. Very nice design.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

After using old.reddit for ~15 years (of course back then it was called just reddit) I have to say I don't miss it one bit. It had so many issues, but was still infinitely better than the abomination they came up with to replace it so I stuck with it. While far from perfect, I much prefer Lemmy's UI.

With that said, having the option is great. I'm sure it'll help a lot of people with the transition.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Now I just need LES and I'll be very happy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Dude, this is amazing! Thank you.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (11 children)

Idk why people like the old reddit UI and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.

Actually, I'll ask it anyway. Can somebody please give me a comprehensive explanation?
Is it just nostalgia? I would understand, I play retro games with CRT filter on.

I feel like a shill I've been pumping this so hard, as others have said, it feels like home.

Thank you for bringing it to more peoples attention so that we can make all of this stick around and take hold

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Fantastic lol I am lucky to be on this ride

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I'm seriously impressed by how good this looks

Hell yeah! Thanks!

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I. Fucking. Love. It.

Thank you.

Amazing! Just one quibble, Upvoting/downvoting doesn't appear to work for me.

Edit: nevermind, works fine after clearing cookies and cache.

Anyways I'm so glad this was made, I only ever browsed desktop reddit using old.reddit.com and now I feel at home with this UI. :)

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

BTW I have a userscript for Keyboard navigation that works on Lemmy https://github.com/vmavromatis/Lemmy-keyboard-navigation

If anyone wishes to help make this compatible for old.lemmy feel free to drop a PR! I'm kinda busy these days.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Too weird for me. I like it here now. That gave me the willies.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's the amazing part. We have options!

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Hey, man. Hell yeah. I'm not here to yuck anyone's yum. It's cool it's an option!

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Lol amazing

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Good job. All you need is away to see and go to your subscribed communities. Like you can on Reddit.

EDIT Looking for new communities on that style of Lemmy is hard. Because here's no easy to find a list of them like normal Lemmy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This is amazing! It is part being familiar with old.reddit and having much more information on screen compared to the normal lemmy interface that makes this so great.

Because let's beat that dead horse again: not everyone reads webpages on their phone: I have a 32" 4k screen and I handle more that 8 lines of text at once on a page.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This is amazing!!! thanks a lot

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This made my day!

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This is amazing, thank you! I really appreciate the effort that the lemmy admins are making to cater to various users.

LES when? Just kidding (...or am I?), awesome work as always! I've seen ~~a similar~~ this project floating around ~~late last month~~ two weeks ago ~~I think~~ but having it linked to old.lemmy.world is much better.

Edit: It was actually the same project just with a different link connected to it! It was also 2 weeks ago not late last month

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Well, this is a game changer. Thank you!

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I wonder if RES would work on this?

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This is awesome, thank you!
