Memmy on iPhone is my daily driver for Lemmy. In comparison the experience on a desktop browser is somewhat bland.

Are they any options on Windows?

Honestly, I like the somewhat bland interface of the web version of Lemmy. It works, it's performative, and not slow.

[-] dot20@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Nitpick: it’s performant (capable of a high level of performance), but not performative (being done as a performance).

I've recently found Photon which is nice!

Voyager is very good on the phone and desktop.

I do have it on my phone, despite said phone running Android - it's great!

Never thought to use it on my desktop though, I'll have to give that a go.

Dev of Photon here, despite basically 3 comments being made about my client and getting 1 pull requests I am literally shaking lmao

Oh, hello there! In that case, thank you for your hard work ok Photon! It's a fantastic frontend to Lemmy and I hope that one day my frontend skills can even be a fraction of what yours are! 😅

[-] ijeff@lemdro.id 2 points 1 year ago

It's truly fantastic and very promising!

[-] Blaze@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Nice one, thanks

https://mlmym.org maybe. Depends what you’re looking for

[-] sicjoke@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I wasn’t necessarily looking for a Reddit clone. I am being spoiled by Memmy and want the same kind of customisable control on my PC.

[-] Oisteink@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I’d love something like RES. For now I just stay on mobile, what I saw of interface when I made my account made me stay off. I do believe wefwef works though

I genuinely couldn’t get on with it for some reason.

On mobile I think it’s hard to beat Memmy.

It’s the desktop experience that I think is lacking.

[-] sgriff@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

I like Alexandrite so far

There was an earlier post where someone made a Dracula theme for Lemmy using userstyles for your browser.

[-] sicjoke@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I saw this, and it’s a decent paint job on the existing UI but I can help thinking how much I would like a dedicated client on windows.

[-] CloverSi@lemmy.comfysnug.space 1 points 1 year ago

The only one I know of is https://mlmym.org/, which is a clone of old reddit

[-] spacedancer@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

mlmym.org if you still have withdrawal symptoms from leaving reddit. When you’re ready for a more modern look, alexandrite.app

[-] sicjoke@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I’m not trying to replicate the look of Reddit. In fact I think that was shittier on desktop and used it exclusively on my phone.

Alexandrite.app looks interesting though. Thanks.

Just use Kbin.
