This is like a serial killer wearing their victim’s face. Good job!
Lmao 💀
Very spot-on. I was expecting a regular HTML-based page but this just looks identical to old.reddit. I’m very impressed.
I believe Reddit’s code was open sourced for a period of time, maybe that’s this looks identical.

How do I gild this comment?

Hope there are extensions called Lemmy Enhancement Suite.
Haha cool, unlike old.reddit this also looks great on mobile!
I’m now officially supporting .world on Patreon because of this.
“I’ve only had old.lemmy for an hour, but if anything happened to him, I would kill everyone in this room and then myself.”
Yes! Thank you @ruud@lemmy.world ❤️
Holy christ, there’s no going back now, lol. This is BEAUTIFUL.
Is it possible to add infinite scrolling?
Ask in their GitHub repo.
Actually, I see it in the options 😃
Endless Scrolling + Auto Load More

This is a thing of true beauty. Behold the real power of an open platform. Lemmy really is going from strength to strength!
Until now I hadn’t realized how disoriented I was still feeling on Lemmy just because I was so used to the old.reddit interface. This is brilliant. Thank you so much.
Btw, old reddit used to display the exact upvote/downvote counts (“x upvoted, y downvoted”) for posts AND comments in the “title” attribute of the total number, visible as a tooltip when hovering the mouse over it. All that “x% upvoted it” for posts and removing the counts entirely for comments was nonsense pushed through by the previous reddit jerk CEO on 2014-06-18 against all community opposition (what is it with reddit and dumping unpopular changes in June?).
If you gonna recreate old reddit, please do not include these later CEO meddlings in it! One of the best features of lemmy is the display of exact counts (which was also a major advertised draw of voat.com and raddle.me before it). Let’s keep that in!
I feel upset with how bad I want this for every instance. I know that change can be good but I want my old creature comforts of when I was 19 and learning about the front page of the internet, chuck testa and maymays
