/c/café daily chat thread for 18 July 2023
(self.cafe)
Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.
Ooo, what would be in that announcement?
a rebranding and a roadmap, among others.
I feel I am starting to prefer using calckey instead of lemmy 🙀 (at least, I am spending much more time on calckey).
Interesting. What's better on calckey?
it has a much nicer user interface 🙂
I guess also a lot more buttons to click and explore, but of course, being microblogging software, it lacks mod tools for discussion threads, so probably lemmy mods should not apply 😆.
oh and here's a handy feature that will probably get into lemmy sooner or later, but one that I would like now (and calckey provides it): auto-saving of replies.
in the middle of typing this, I refreshed the page, navigated back to this thread, clicked the reply button, and what I typed before was still there ❤️.
by the way, have you heard that the lemmy devs have started a new ui frontend that may eventually replace the current lemmy-ui?
Huhu, yeah i've noticed that Lemmy's UI and UX is the one that hinder the growth of this platform, and in turn this site, it's just somehow outdated, and the algorithm isn't tweaked to serve huge crowd, lots of clunkiness here and there, where the competitor is just better in terms of UX. When reddit introduce their official app, it's that point people start to use reddit. Hope in the coming one or two month an actual good app can make people stick, and hopefully by the time the other server is livelier, which also help with monyet.cc
