A nicer desktop experience.
Memmy on iPhone is my daily driver for Lemmy. In comparison the experience on a desktop browser is somewhat bland.
Are they any options on Windows?

Honestly, I like the somewhat bland interface of the web version of Lemmy. It works, it's performative, and not slow.
Nitpick: it’s performant (capable of a high level of performance), but not performative (being done as a performance).
I've recently found Photon which is nice!
Voyager is very good on the phone and desktop.
https://wefwef.app/
I do have it on my phone, despite said phone running Android - it's great!
Never thought to use it on my desktop though, I'll have to give that a go.
Dev of Photon here, despite basically 3 comments being made about my client and getting 1 pull requests I am literally shaking lmao
Oh, hello there! In that case, thank you for your hard work ok Photon! It's a fantastic frontend to Lemmy and I hope that one day my frontend skills can even be a fraction of what yours are! 😅
Or alexandrite
It's truly fantastic and very promising!
Nice one, thanks
https://mlmym.org maybe. Depends what you’re looking for
I wasn’t necessarily looking for a Reddit clone. I am being spoiled by Memmy and want the same kind of customisable control on my PC.
Try https://alexandrite.app?
Nice. Thanks for this.
I’d love something like RES. For now I just stay on mobile, what I saw of interface when I made my account made me stay off. I do believe wefwef works though
Voyager is very good on the phone and desktop.

I genuinely couldn’t get on with it for some reason.
On mobile I think it’s hard to beat Memmy.
It’s the desktop experience that I think is lacking.
I like Alexandrite so far
There was an earlier post where someone made a Dracula theme for Lemmy using userstyles for your browser.

I saw this, and it’s a decent paint job on the existing UI but I can help thinking how much I would like a dedicated client on windows.
I’m not trying to replicate the look of Reddit. In fact I think that was shittier on desktop and used it exclusively on my phone.
Alexandrite.app looks interesting though. Thanks.
The only one I know of is https://mlmym.org/, which is a clone of old reddit
Just use Kbin.
