It makes it easier to prioritize what I work on if I know someone's wanting a feature. What sort of stuff do you wish Alexandrite had? Especially talking about missing features from the main UI.

If you can, please provide some explanation for why you would like that feature and what problem it would solve for you (unless of course it's a feature that Lemmy has already but Alexandrite doesn't support yet). Knowing what problem you want solved helps me work with you to brainstorm ideas for the best solution (see the XY problem).

Gotcha, yeah I was planning on doing something like that card layout stuff sometime soon probably. I've been working on an alternate feed layout that lets you view a post side-by-side with the feed, and having extra options for how things show in the feed would be nice.

(btw, if you want to try out this column view thing you can view the preview verison, still might have some bugs, and the defaults right now probably squishes things unless you have a high resolution screen but if you close the sidebar it should look nice at 1080p, also you have to go to the settings page to change your page layout to "Columns", accessible from the user button in the top right).

That looks great and I love that idea! Keep up the great work!
