We just added Alexandrite to the server, it's an alternative desktop UI for Lemmy created by Sheodox who worked tirelessly to make the necessary changes to we could host it ourselves here. So go to https://a.lemmy.world and have a look!

He continues to update it constantly, you can follow the development on his github page or in his community. If you like what you see and want to support him, why not buy him a coffee? :)

For those who don't have Lemmy World as their home instance and want to use Alexandrite, either ask your instance admins to add it or go to https://alexandrite.app!

Edit: I should probably have mentioned that Alexandrite is meant for desktop!

Yeah there is a lot of push back for full API documentation. I get it, they want to move fast and not have to rebuild thier old CI tool. But being open source its going to stifle development in the long run. I almost started building my own front end for Lemmy a month ago when there was only Jerboa but I didn't like some of the decisions of the core devs and I didn't want an ongoing battle to keep a front end up to date when changes are made.

I'm very appreciative to the Lemmy devs and all the app builders but I'm also lazy and perfectionist when it comes to coding in my free time.
