That’s an option. You can change the thumbnail alignment to the left, then use compact instead of list mode. OP is using bad settings.

Lemmy.world refuses to update Photon for some reason and it’s why I really hate when instances host Photon as a separate UI. I should really just remove that option and force people to use phtn.app or selfhost it another way.

Hi everyone, I’m the dev. Reading all these comments really hurts when it’s something you’ve poured your heart and soul into for over a year.

There’s reasons I do everything I do in this UI, and my primary goal is to make Lemmy accessible for everyone.

This is the “cozy” view as well, but there’s a “compact” view for people like me who enjoy more information density. Again, my end goal is to make Lemmy accessible. I don’t do this for the sidebars for convoluted reasons I won’t get into.

I’m not the one trying to advertise it, and I’ve never really tried to because of the fear of disapproval. I think I should advertise it myself now because then I can showcase the best parts and not get misunderstood. This screenshot uses the “list” view, imo the worst one, with some cursed chrome scrollbars.

Now that I see that the majority of users believe this sucks, I’m not sure if my mission is worth it or if I’m even doing it right.

I’m probably being too sensitive to criticism which I should expect from any project. But this project is the only one I used to feel proud of, then people chiming in claiming it’s the ugliest thing they’ve seen. I don’t know im blind to design which is the only thing I considered myself “good” at in terms of web dev.

Hey, I’m the Photon dev. I’d like to know which parts Photon incorrectly displayed, so far I only see tables rendering incorrectly. I’ll have this fixed soon.

Update: fixed table displays, pushed to main

Could this be updated now? 🥺 (you can test here)
