I’ve added a bunch of new features to Alexandrite (a third party Lemmy alternate web UI for desktop)!

alexandrite.app - [email protected] - Github

Lemmy Settings

You can now change most of Lemmy’s settings (just not language/avatar/banner/2FA/password).

Mod tools

A lot of mod tools were added. You can view reports and be able to do most things except appoint/removing mods and viewing the mod log.

Scroll between top level comments buttons

Floating at the bottom of the page when viewing a post you will now see a little navigation bar that lets you scroll between comments (and a similar one on the post list that lets you scroll to the top of the page).

Better markdown editor

The text editor used when making posts/comments has been upgraded! Now you can find buttons for bold/italic etc, most of the things you can do on the official website.

If you have any issues let me know, or create an issue on Github.

    Heck yeah, thanks!

    It’s the only way I use Lemmy on desktop too (except when making announcement posts because Alexandrite doesn’t support image uploading yet). Though to be honest I spend a whole lot more time working on Alexandrite than I do using it! I’m still just waiting for Sync to be out and I’ll be set on the mobile front of things too, I miss that app.
