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.
Make sure yall open issues (specific ones please, not a ton in one issue), on the lemmy-ui github. Otherwise they’ll likely get lost, and people won’t be able to work on them easily.
