Hey there everyone. I think the Photon project has matured enough to the point where I feel ready to replace the default lemmy frontend with it. Since this instance serves roughly 1000 people now, I figured this was worth holding a vote on!

Please check out Photon as currently hosted at https://p.lemdro.id.

If you support changing the default frontend to Photon, upvote my comment on this post. If you don't support it, downvote that same comment.

Thanks!

My vote goes to whatever makes you feel like you're offering the best experience to your users. People that don't like it can always switch to the old one.

I think it makes sense as a mobile-focused instance. Wouldn't surprise me most of us are using mobile apps anyway...

Photon is quite good on desktop as well! I appreciate your feedback

Personally I very rarely browse on the web but the default web UI is kinda crappy imo.

As long as old.lemdro.id stays I am happy.

Has it been down the last couple of days? I'm getting a Cloudflare error

[–] cole 2 points 1 year ago

Fyi, it should be fixed now

Photon has cards and looks so good. Take my upvote and set it default when possible.

+1 for me with l.lemdro.id reserved for lemmy-ui.
