The 2 frontends are

  • Mlmym at old.endlesstalk.org. Here you can get the old.reddit experience.
  • Alexandrite at new.endlesstalk.org. "A beautiful and convenient desktop-first alternate web UI for Lemmy."
    • Registering isn't supported yet. Need to sign up using old.endlesstalk.org or new.endlesstalk.org.

Everyone is welcome to try them and sign up(not required). It is running on a fairly beefy server, so should be able to take a decent amount of users.

Love the look of Alexandrite. Is there a way to self-host it? I’m not familiar with Svelte.

I created a fork, where I added a Dockerfile, so if you know Docker and how to build it, should be able to use that.

It exposes port 3000 and you need to point PUBLIC_INSTANCE to where the main instance is hosted.

Thanks for sharing, running on a Docker container is perfect.

(I'm the dev of Alexandrite) Officially there isn't yet a way to self-host it without modifying the code (unless you host it on one of a few specific cloud providers like the official Alexandrite site does), but now that people are self hosting anyway I think adding support for it is going to be higher up on my priority list!
