    imo the UI feels much cleaner than the new reddit UI and much more modern that the old reddit UI. I would like to be see some kind of compact mode though, especially for mobile.

      I’m def up for seeing ideas / ways I could tweak the layout to make it more clean and compact. I’m not really a UI person, outside of just copying the styles of my favorite apps… like this UI is modeled mostly after boost for reddit.

        I mainly use redreader for Reddit, I don’t think I have ever used boost. I like it and find it easy/simple to use.

        It has a main menu, where you can select the community.

        Here is what it looks like.

        Main menu/front page:

        R/all:

        R/Linux

        Hamburger menu options:

        Sort menu options:

          i’m sure you could fork the source code and adapt it to lemmy :)
          saidit did this and it looks like it would be simple.

      I have never thought about this, but now that you mention it, I could see a compact mode being a nice addition. Yeah, I think you are right. I have no problems whatsoever with the current mode, but there is a lot of free space around that could be potentially shrunken for a pretty compact UI.
