An alternative lemmy client with a sleek design.

If you’ve paid careful attention to our sticky, you may have noticed Lemdro.id hosts a few slick web app interfaces for Lemmy. Give them a try!

These are active projects, so please do report any bugs to their respective GitHub pages linked below.

What do you think of them? What kind of tools would you like to see for Lemmy?

    Yep. They are all great. Photon is my favourite so far. Sleek & Fast with a Black & White theme. But they are still a Work in Progress amd lack features. I tried them a week ago. I always end up reverting back to lemdro.id

      Agreed. It’s my favourite design. I’m looking forward to seeing how things progress!

            “incorrect_login” Also I can’t type 0 (zero) in the 2FA code box but can paste the code even if it contains a zero

                SyntaxError: Unexpected token ‘R’, “Request er”… is not valid JSON)

                Anyway here is the screen recording uploaded to mega link

      lemdro.id is just a frontend, however it does have a special shortcut to the backend that allows it to function better under heavy load (on lemdro.id specifically)

          Yes! There are 3 different “types” of Lemmy backends in our infrastructure. “scheduled” types, of which there can only be one, run scheduled federation traffic as well as some smaller load balanced load of requests. The “external” type handles generic requests same as “scheduled” except without scheduled federation tasks. These can spin up or down all the way to 0, as sometimes the scheduled instance can handle everything on its own.

          Finally, there is “internal”. These are dedicated backend instances that are not publicly exposed and therefore do not handle any federation traffic at all. Lemmy-ui communicates with this internal backend, meaning that our UI has a path that is entirely separate to the federation traffic and should stay responsive no matter what!
