I have been using Memmy on Apple for browsing mobile and it is fantastic. But if I happen to be on my desktop and just browse to lemmy.world the experience is a bit underwhelming. Is there a better way to desktop/browser lemmy? (Do we call looking at lemmy the lemmy?)

I hope such a thing won't necessary for lemmy as these enhancements become part of the default experience.

Tampermonkey (and similar browser extensions) have scripts to make lemmy look like old reddit and there are other scripts that may help with lemmy. I don't know if that's what you want, but it's an option.

Link seems to be working for me. You can try searching for it via any search engine. You'll find it.

That's odd. It was correctly parsed on my end. Added a space just in case.

I'm pretty happy with the desktop browser view. Check your settings under your profile. There's some things you can change there that might help. Selecting a more favorable theme and setting a default sort might help.

I use wefwef.app from my desktop browser which gives me an Apollo like experience.

There’s also alexandrite.app. I started playing with it and mlmym today. Both are pretty decent.

Wefwef comes to mind. Functions similarly to Apollo for reddit so. I heard. It's a web app

https://wefwef.app

Unsure if wefwef works on desktop

[-] d00phy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It does, but it's clearly intended for mobile. It's looks a bit odd on desktop. mlmym & alexandrite both look right on desktop. Alexdandrite actually bills itself as desktop first.
