YSK: there is a Lemmy frontend similar to old reddit called mlmym - Lemmy.world

Why YSK: you can recreate the old Reddit experience by using this frontend for those who have always used old.reddit. It also gives a nostalgic feel, is more efficent, and loads faster than the Lemmy interface.

oh this is rad thank you!!

Basically, only instance admins could deploy this, right?

Would be nice to have this as an option under Themes.

no you can just go to mlmym.org and login there. does not need to be loaded on the instance at all.

Ah I see. Thanks for the tip!
Do we trust them not to steal credentials?

Hmmm yeah this does seem to be proxying login info. Ideally it would be done like elk.zone and mastodon where it kicks you out to an oauth flow that returns with an app token you can later revoke in your account settings. But I'm guessing that doesn't exist for lemmy yet.

On the bright side the UI looks amazing

They do have published source code, so you can look through that if you’re concerned, or host your own version instead.
You can run your own docker instance if you don’t trust them. The code - along with an example of how to run it - are here github.com/rystaf/mlmym

It’s actually great. I would love to see it’s options expanded a bit, and moving things like community icon and banner onto the top bar where they are on old.reddit but it looks really good thus far.
Does it have a dark mode or is it retina burning blue and white?
Awesome, will give a try. Thanks.
Cool stuff! I just took a brief look and it was very recognizable, which is cool. Does / will it have RES features implemented?

it’s a start

Userscript for mlmym keyboard navigation (aka "Old Lemmy") - Lemmy.world

This is a gift for all you mlmym lovers out there: A userscript that allows you to navigate mlmym with HJKL keyboard navigation :) This is an initial release and only available on github [https://github.com/vmavromatis/Lemmy-keyboard-navigation/blob/add-mlmym-support/lemmy-keyboard-navigation.user.js] for now. Once we find a smart way to merge with the new Lemmy userscript [https://github.com/vmavromatis/Lemmy-keyboard-navigation] (site detection and seperate js files??) we will publish on greasyfork and chrome store as well. Help is always welcome, I myself am very inexperienced with js and userscripts. ALL credits go to InfinibyteF4 for making this happen 🏆

I'm on Kbin, wish this could be used on Kbin
Wow, this is very nice.
Wow, this is very nice.
Oh shit, this is kind of weird in a good way
Wow! This is awesome. Nostalgia city!

AMAZING

Hopefully it will be forked so we can move beyond old reddit

Nice, here's hoping for a Kbin version once Kbin's API is ready!
This is so good that I almost wish it was the default theme.

It’s brilliant! I started trying to use RES features before realizing they weren’t there.

Would love to have multis and such. Great start, can’t wait to see if more options get added!

I love this, thank you for sharing!!

YSK: there is a Lemmy frontend similar to old reddit called mlmym : youshouldknow

Now all we need is for someone to recreate Reddit’s compact interface for those older devices that can’t run the apps, or for people who just want a lighter site.
Is anyone able to log in? Whenever I try, it just refreshes the page. When I go to the login page and do it from there, I get a Bad gateway error.
midwest.social: sign up or log in

Trying to run this on unraid, but login and dark mode don’t work :(
