informal PSA: we are sorry the UI got worse and more annoying to use, please blame Lemmy for all the shit that is now that little bit more irritating (beehaw.org)

we already collectively dislike a substantial number of 0.18+'s UI decisions, most of which are minor but are already adding up to be that much more annoying collectively. maybe we can sand some of these off with theming in the future. for now though please hang with this and petition them to merge better decisions in the future, thanks

I do get where you're coming from even though I don't agree. As you said, we're looking at this post in isolation; I don't think a random rant about a huge platform update that hasn't gone terrifically well is indicative of Beehaw admins not being constructive about it in general. It's still a < v1.0 service after all and there are some huge problems with eg. federation and whatnot that are causing admins and users of all instances nontrivial amounts of hassle.

It's a bumpy ride and there's going to be annoyances aplenty, but I do trust that in the end everyone is handling things OK even though annoyances sometimes flare up
