BoostForLemmy? ๐๐
The dev of Jerboa based it off of Boost for Reddit. The only way you would get an exact copy is if the dev of boost decided to move over to Lemmy. Doubtful, but possible.
I was about to say to the post as a whole "eh, its not that bad, idk what you're talking about", and then saw this, I actually used boost for like 4 years lol
Boost is great! A lot of the 3rd party apps are lovingly made. Stinks that Reddit decided money was more important than a user-base. But now we have Lemmy, which hopefully won't even be able to be like that.
I just got into lemmy, can't imagine using reddit without boost, jeroba feels very similar to boost except for having very little customisations(the font size in the comments is bugging me a bit), but I think with time it'll improve.
There's an open PR that'll fix the font size issue. I'm using it now and it's great. I'm also personally working on trying to add my personal must-have UI options from Boost.
Ahh alright then, thank you for your work. Ps: sry if it sounded like I was complaining on the previous comment lol. I wish I could contribute, but I have no knowledge in this field.
That would be absolutely splendid. Although i have to say i'm extremely impressed by the website UI. It's super fast and way better than most websites i've used recently.
Probably because it doesn't load a bunch of trash along with the content.
Big if true. Would make my dreams come true.
