Hello everyone!
I’ve setup two more public interfaces that you can use to browse lemmy.ca:
-
https://old.lemmy.ca/ - This runs mlmym to give you an experience closer to that site most of us fled from
-
https://voyager.lemmy.ca/ - This runs voyager for a more iOS mobile style interface
Enjoy!
You must log in or register to comment.
The latest version of mlmym includes the subscribed commuunities dropdown in the top bar. Can mlmym be updated to this version, please? The lack of access to one’s subscribed communities makes it borderline unusable atm despite how much I like it.
Done!
Holy crap that was fast!!! And it now has the ‘My communities’ dropdown, which makes it much better! Thanks!!
Holy crapballs. Amazing :)
Now let’s get user flair on posts and comments and the migration is complete! :p
EDIT: there’s a longstanding request for post flair here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/317
…and user flair: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1456
Silly stuff but it makes people feel at home!
Thanks so much admins!
We really appreciate this server, and all you do for it.
old.lemmy.ca absolutely nails it <3
EDIT: Just noticed the upvotes are blue while the downvotes are red, is that the desired result?
This is amazing … I’m throwing money, coins and credit cards at my screen right now
old.lemmy.ca looks and feels exactly like the old bag of crap website I left a couple of months ago.
DARK MODE … it even has dark mode! … keep it up, keep it up!
You guys are amazing and I’m more than happy with the subscribed donation I’ve given to your instance.
Keep up the great work guys, this is unbelievable!
EDIT: … I feel like an addict that just got their fix again … this is amazing … I’m wiping the powder from my nose and I’m trying to act normal again
Don’t thank me so much, it took me 5 minutes to install. The developer deserves all your appreciation since I’m sure it took them way longer.
Thanks for the kind words! @Shadow@lemmy.ca has been amazing.
You guys are amazing and I’m more than happy with the subscribed donation I’ve given to your instance.
Just so you know with the transition to the new team all prior donation subscriptions have been cancelled and we’ve yet to set up a new system for donations.
We’ll let you all know when we have a new system up and running right now but it’s not high priority as we’re well funded for at least the next 6 to 9 months if we don’t have explosive growth.
I joined recently and tried to find lemmy.ca on Patreon, but couldn’t. Will you folks set up your presence there? That’s where I support all other Fediverse instances I’m using (plus Lemmy itself), so I’m assuming a lot of fedizens will find it natural to support you there.
I’ll keep that in mind, and I’ve just had a realization, we can set up all the donation options and just not “cash out” until we’re determined non-profit status and how we’re going to set up the financial side of it.
I think if you consider Patreon, also do consider OpenCollective as well. I know a lot of people including myself use it quite often.
Hey! I run a lemmy instance as well and some of our users are asking for the old interface.
Did you deploy mlmym onto the same server as your main lemmy instance, and if so any chance you could share how you adapted your docker and nginx configs? (Assuming you initially had a setup like the one provided by the official lemmy ansible script?)
Just add it to your docker-compose file, then create a new /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ vhost that points to the port you expose from docker.
heh, thanks for your confidence in my abilities! We’ll see…
Love the recreation of the old interface! I wish some of the edit options (like editing a community you mod) weren’t hidden in this skin, though. Guess I should file a github request with the author to expose those.
EDIT: I jut missed where they were, see this post https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym/issues/51#issuecomment-1652404012
Looks nice thank you.
Why not use m.lemmy.ca instead for Voyager
Voyager is really only suitable for iOS
I’m curious why you say that. Seems to work fine on Android in browser.
It works fine, but it’s very obviously designed with iOS in mind. Aesthetically it doesn’t fit with the rest of my UI.
It’s not a massive complaint, but I’d hope “m.lemmy.ca” would be reserved for something more OS agnostic.

Yup. I get what you’re saying now. It doesn’t fit indeed. And yes m.lemmy.ca will be reserved for something more OS agnostic.
Could Photon be another one? It looks pretty nice, lemodroid added it alongside these two
Edit: Oh looks like someone already mentioned it further down
Sweet! I saw a Lemmy.world making these moves and was hoping we would get that here. Y’all read my mind!
Great job!
Feel free to make requests if you see useful things that other instances are doing =)
Just saw the folks at lemdro.id add both voyager and Photon as options for their front end.
This is the link to their photon. Looks pretty cool. Feels really fast.
I saw it all from this post: https://lemdro.id/post/171020
Anyhow, I also like Voyager. Just thought I’d let you know what they were up to over there.
This container currently needs to be run as root, which I’m unwilling to do. I’ll see if I can patch it this weekend and submit a PR to fix it upstream.
Thanks, I’ll add this one too!
There’s also Alexandrite (details on the lemdro.id frontends here): https://lemdro.id/post/148148
Personally I’m not using Photon or Alexandrite, but it might be nice to have?
Now I just need a subscribed community dropdown list like I had with RES
…and now it’s there with the new update! Nice!
