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
Side note, if anyone also misses the Old Reddit style, lemmy.world also has an easy way to do that, just visit: https://old.lemmy.world/
For more info, visit the devs GitHub: mlmym - GitHub
The fact that the login UI has username, password, and 2FA code all on one screen means this immediately wins. I hate this new trend of “put in your email, now go to another screen, put in your password, now go to another screen…” Ugh. My password manager can autofill more than one box at a time, you know!
I don’t know why websites do that, it doesn’t look better, is probably more confusing and in general just slower for everyone
Its probably also more difficult to program the functionality into multiple pages as well.
Maybe I’m confusing instances but I was almost positive they all have all those on the main screen?
I’m getting 502.
Thanks a ton for hosting this!
502 Error but I look forward to checking it out, sounds like its quite an improved interface.
if you’re getting a 502 on photon.lemmy.world, you can still try Photon at phtn.app
