This is like a serial killer wearing their victim’s face. Good job!

This and the previous comment are officially the hardest I’ve laughed on this platform so far.

While we're on the subject of UIs, can we get an account option to disable or collapse embedded images/gifs in comments? I want that classic reddit feel of just text and links to images.

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.

Every web frontend is source-available. You can do some obfuscation sure, but it's always possible to just grab the computed style properties when the document finished rendering.

Well yeah, but I imagine being able to look at Reddit's back end code might have helped make sure it behaves identically to the real thing.

How do I gild this comment?

Lol, it's just like how reddit silver used to be

I love this so much. Much like a child’s drawing or even Lemmy itself, it might look rough but at the same time it’s exactly what I want to see.

I was against the talk of introducing a “Lemmy gold” until I stumbled on this comment.

I mean: an award you can give once a month or so isn't bad per se. It was the inflation of those crappy stickers, that they gave you karma and other stuff and that they could be bought what made them unbearable.

Or even better, just highlight posts with a lot of upvotes or so.
