Seriously, out of any community how does /r/Piracy have so many people who have such a hate-boner for ~~new thing~~ Lemmy? Please tell me I'm not the only one aghast by this right now.

They're complaining that Lemmy is ugly while they're going through piracy-related websites like those aren't a 2000's era hot mess.

I love how Lemmy looks because it's like old reddit. After only ever using RiF, the official app is visually awful. Their own app lags while scrolling because there's so much shit. Forums aren't supposed to be pretty, they're supposed to be practical.

It sure looks pretty with the Stylus extension installed. There are some nice themes to choose from.

Oh wow, that does look nice. Very reddit-style.

Okay you've gotta tell me, where did you find Lemmy themes for Stylus? I've tried it in the past but my searches always come back empty.

Shit, forget it. I don't know what the hell I was doing, but now it's working. Here I was making fun of people being tech illiterate while also being tech illiterate myself.

I’m using Memmy on iOS right now and I swear it’s as good as Apollo was, it looks great. Also a fan of wefwef.app. Anybody considering Lemmy can be ok using third party apps, it’s all fine.

im still hoping a viable android app pops up soon. ik there is Jerboa but it feels kinda barebones as of right now.

There's Liftoff, wefwef.app (web app), Slide is still very early alpha, Thunder. There are a lot of options.

liftoff is pretty solid already, and it runs on ios and windows also. feels a lot like RiF, visually.
