Looks great! Wonder is there a way to reduce the size of the sidebar? It takes up a huge amount of the space on web (while still keeping the names visible, the minimized view with icons isn't super helpful)

You can resize the sidebar with the thing on the bottom right of the sidebar.
ohhh thanks - it doesnt seem like that setting saves on refresh of the page though :(
I made it as large as it is because it looks strange if the posts are nearly as wide as your monitor, it's quite hard to read
Looks great! :))
Ooooh, this looks great!! Especially on mobile too! Thank you so much!!
very well
Wow! It looks nice!
Looks fantastic. Only nag so far is I'd like the side-bar to be resizable as well as collapsible.
Both are possible already! You can resize with the little thing on the bottom right of the navbar, and the collapse button is on the top left of the navbar.
Thanks for pointing out the resize widget thing! I did see the collapse button, just worded that poorly I guess.
Nice to have some variety and choice, and this is certainly a very solid first version! Always room for improvement, of course. :)
- How to log in the first time is not at all obvious. If that empty circle was not in the corner where most Lemmy instances have a login link I would never have found it. At least this is only necessary to find once, but still, there's room to put "Login" text in that space.
- I like that the left sidebar with my subscribed communities is collapsible, but the community sidebar on the right is not collapsible. I think the latter is much less useful or commonly used for most users, so this is an odd choice IMO.
- Three vertical scrolling areas is not super great. I also get a horizontal scrollbar in the community list when collapsed. Why make the left and right panes "sticky" and scroll with the main column, then remain in place with further scrolling. If the right sidebar was collapsible, I don't see why scrolling with the main column would cause problems.
I'd prefer to keep the empty circle, but an icon to put there would be better. Should I put the login icon in the empty circle?

Works great on desktop!
Q: On mobile, how to quickly access subscribed communities?
Updated the post to include the new donation link.
Nice UI! I can't view the modlog though...
Ah yeah, I need to add that. The way the API works makes it a literal nightmare to get the modlog working, but I'll get to it.
It looks awesome! ๐๐ผ
Sick!
Looks great!
Would you consider adding my Lemmy theme as well? https://github.com/pkrasicki/lemmy-modern-ui-theme-addon

This actually isn't half bad. I've been using a.lemmy.world as default for now, and it been really solid
Neat!
very cool!
