Do people actually like all of the overdesigned clutter to the point where it makes them not want to switch sites?
To me, the stripped down clarity on Lemmy is a feature. I remember back in the day when people flocked to Facebook from MySpace, in large part because they were sick of eye gouging customized pages and just wanted a simple, consistent interface. The content, not the buttons to click on it are the draw right?
It’s FOSS so someone will probably make what they want, if they just give it a sec to appear for free out of thin air then they’ll have to come up with another excuse.
I agree with you. Also funny coincidence, I was just listening to petrodragonic as I scrolled by :p
