Alexandrite is a Beautiful Web Frontend for Lemmy
(wedistribute.org)
for the lazy
While looking good on desktop (based on screenshots), it is definitely not designed for mobile. See below
Yes it’s designed exclusively for desktop.
You guys bring your desktops with you when you shit?
You know what's funny? I would never use something like this (my own Lemmy client is absolutely terrible in comparison!). But I'm so happy that Alexandrite exists: it's proof that programming and web development can still be experimental and loads of fun. Congrats to the developers!
Honestly, I think this is the real selling point of the fediverse, at least for developers. There's no incentive to force people to use Official Mobile Clients™. You can literally spin up something (meaning a fediverse server) locally, if you want, and test against that until you have something that works. And as long as you stick to the API, you can build whatever you want.
I really need hoverZoom+ to work on Lemmy. I will use anything that allows that, and this may be great, but I'll never know because no hoverZoom.
