Just wanted to share this with you. Of course the interface is designed for touch first, but I honestly expected the site to explode into a huge mess when loaded on anything other than common mobile device screens.

But here we are. Maybe ~~wefwef~~Voyager is the most usable Lemmy web interface currently available – on desktop and on mobile!

One of my favorite things about it is how often it's updated. 😎

I agree that it’s pretty good and I also use it as my main way of accessing lemmy. It could be improved though and I hope the devs implement some tablet / desktop improvements later on.

I'm giving it a go, and I'm really digging it!

I went ahead and installed the PWA (I think only chrome based browsers support this on desktop), and it's pretty great.

I'm a big fan of PWAs, and Voyager is one that is done so well.

It is nice... but on desktop I prefer lemmy UI 0.18.2 with theme darkly-pureblack

same LOL (unless I'm on my 13" air, then its much nicer in side-by-side)

At some point I'd like to give the desktop experience some love and do a Mail app experience (feed on left, post details/comments on right)

Edit: I also think desktop experience would be nicer with page animations turned off, I should do that at some point...

Does this work on windows? Probably on Mac (since it’s designed to work on ios) and linux (since it’s designed to work on android), but what of windows?

I've used it a little bit on Firefox on my windows machine, I remember it being ok but I like the default Lemmy desktop webpage. Haven't done anything with the pwa functionality, so idk if that works on windows.
