I saw a post today from beehaw's admin talking about the new UI? Why are we limited to the UI being as it is? Why aren't there alternative hostable Lemmy frontends?

Well someone has to put in the work. It’s definitely possible to change the UI and have instances with their own UIs.

And actually, there is already an alternative frontend: wefwef.app It’s not it’s own instance but you can use it with any other instance.
