I’ve heard many people saying that the front-end looks old and needs more work, but I’ve never heard someone describe how it could look better. To me, it looks perfectly fine. I wish it had a card layout similar to libreddit, but aside from that, I think it’s nice. If people want a completely different look, then there’s lemmyBB, and there will probably be other front-ends in the future. However, we should hear opinions about which styles people want.
I actually really enjoy the theme and general layout, maybe some small quality of life adjustments. My bigger concern would be things like profile import/export so people can move to different servers, fixing the ability to customize your default starting page (All / Active, Subscribed / Top for Day, etc.). We may need a good way to share a link to the post & its thread, I did share a link to someone and it provided only the post’s image, it could be a misunderstanding on my part, but I was wanting the recipient to also be able to view the comments.
I love the theming and how intuitive everything is given the complex environment.
