Hope there are extensions called Lemmy Enhancement Suite.

I'm home. I'm finally home. Well, time to put on some PJ's and stay a while.

Btw, old reddit used to display the exact upvote/downvote counts ("x upvoted, y downvoted") for posts AND comments in the "title" attribute of the total number, visible as a tooltip when hovering the mouse over it. All that "x% upvoted it" for posts and removing the counts entirely for comments was nonsense pushed through by the previous reddit jerk CEO on 2014-06-18 against all community opposition (what is it with reddit and dumping unpopular changes in June?).

If you gonna recreate old reddit, please do not include these later CEO meddlings in it! One of the best features of lemmy is the display of exact counts (which was also a major advertised draw of voat.com and raddle.me before it). Let's keep that in!

That's awesome. Hope we can get RES for this.

Excuse me, I think you mean LES. ๐Ÿ˜

This is so wonderful. Both easy and familiar to use and inspires much nostalgia of course. This is how I will Lemmy from desktop from now on.

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

This is absolutely amazing. Thank you and the devs of this so much. Feels like home.

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Woww. Just wow. Iโ€™m not on World but this is great.

Wow, just beautiful and right on time. Was advertising the lemmy community today to friends who got stuck with reddit, and this is just the ringer i was looking for.

Hope Ryan is here: Thanks mate!! And to Ruud and the other admins: you r doing a great job here. And it is fun to return here every single time, because of the work you invest into this instance!

Complete and utter game changer

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

look at me. I am the reddit now.

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

This is beautiful

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

that's hilarious, but could i use RES extension?

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

I just realized all the links are at the top too, thank you so much for doing this.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

Holy shit this is awesome! Although I steadily got used to the lemmy UI this definitely feels like home :)

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would love dark mode on this. Ideally all RES features as well but that would be a ton of work, I'm happy with just this

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You can enable dark mode via the settings drop down in the top right corner of old.lemmy.world

Okay, this is going to significantly increase my Lemmy usage. Thank you so much to the dev(s)! Between having an "old.lemmy.world" now and Memmy (which does a great job of replicating Apollo) I'm able to almost perfectly duplicate how I liked to browse reddit. Now I'm just hoping someone develops a RES (LES) extension someday!

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

If we could get something to organize/manage our lemmy communities (sublemmies?) at the top like subreddits that would be fantastic. Given the great work your team is doing it's probably already in the works. Thanks to you I've just about completed excising Reddit from my life, just need lemmy topics to start popping up in search engines and to pull in some more diaspora to flesh out the communities.

I hope both Reddit and Twitter go the way of Myspace, we humans deserve better than to be treated like digital chattel being milked for money and data.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

For April Fool's Day can you guys switch out lemmy-ui for lemmyBB?

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

This looks exactly like Old Reddit, holy shit.

I actually prefer the style of Lemmy, but wow this is great.

Account created and verified simply for the pleasure of clicking on this post's upvote button.

Problem, though - the upvote count isn't fuzzed haha.

I might be missing it, but is there a side-bar to view my subscribed communities? I think on old.reddit, there was a pop-out bar on the left side of the window (but that may have been from RES).
