Alternative UI: Photon (photon.lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by antik@lemmy.world to c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world

We added an extra UI for our users. Photon by Xylight is an interface with a sleek, modern look and has all the bells and whistles you would need. Moderator tools included! You can access the UI from https://photon.lemmy.world.

Visit Photon's project page on github or get in touch with the developer in the !photon@lemmy.xylight.dev community. If you want to use photon on other instances you can do so from https://phtn.app.

Update: @Xylight has set up a donation link so if you like photon as much as I do, show him some love! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/xylight

Haven't seen anyone else mention this yet, but this seems to be the only app (installed as PWA) that has mod options. Well done!

Awesome! For some reason I thought that one was desktop only since last time I tried it, it didn't load well on mobile at all.

Oh yeah actually Alexandrite is not really suited for mobile. The developer is working on improving the mobile experience but it's main focus is desktop.

BIG EDIT: Actually @sheodox@lemmy.world just released an update and it now looks pretty frickin sweet on mobile with a new cards layout.

BIG EDIT

Good call, that does look quite nice.

100x better than previously

Ah that must be why it looks good on mobile now. I wonder if they'll implement a way to install it as a PWA.
