Updated to v0.0.18.
There have been a few versions released the last few hours so I will just post a link to the general release notes https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym/releases

These are the changes added since the last version (v0.0.15) we were running:

• community bang link fixes #44
• show mlmym version in settings page
• removed excess community api calls
• fix community bang links
• ignore "old." subdomain when rewriting lemmy links- my communities dropdown #39
• "mark read" button when "show read posts" is disabled #20
• fixed pagination/filtering bugs in search
• removed page jerk after loading last page of comments
• redirect frontpage login errors

This is like a serial killer wearing their victim’s face. Good job!

Holy christ, there's no going back now, lol. This is BEAUTIFUL.

Is it possible to add infinite scrolling?

Open link in new tab, please

Btw, old reddit used to display the exact upvote/downvote counts ("x upvoted, y downvoted") for posts AND comments in the "title" attribute of the total number, visible as a tooltip when hovering the mouse over it. All that "x% upvoted it" for posts and removing the counts entirely for comments was nonsense pushed through by the previous reddit jerk CEO on 2014-06-18 against all community opposition (what is it with reddit and dumping unpopular changes in June?).

If you gonna recreate old reddit, please do not include these later CEO meddlings in it! One of the best features of lemmy is the display of exact counts (which was also a major advertised draw of voat.com and raddle.me before it). Let's keep that in!

I bet there’s a pretty good overlap between “people who preferred old.reddit.com” and “people who left Reddit in disgust.” Thank you.

"Removed by mod" comment are still visible on old.lemmy.world.

https://lemmy.world/comment/1687844 - removed by mod

https://old.lemmy.world/comment/1687844 - "Drink bleach."

If you could also kick this person for telling people to kill themselves, that'd be great, thanks. If every last space is going to blithely demand "civility" and prevent us from telling people where to stick it, when they deserve it - moderation needs to be orders of magnitude better, on our behalf. Otherwise it just means "be nice to toxic monsters."

now that's how a community is supposed to be run

good webdev

pat pat

edit: @nnrx@sh.itjust.works you know, if you really wanted to knock this out of the park... why not add in some features from Reddit Enhancement Suite? I dunno if anyone will ever consider porting RES over to Lemmy, but there were a lot of nice things like drag to zoom that I'll miss. if those features were implemented natively without needing an addon, that'd be super neat.

Wow, i hate to admit it but i really missed this, it is awesome thanks so much.

The creator appears to be @nnrx@sh.itjust.works.

I'm now officially supporting .world on Patreon because of this.

This reminds me of that old site that made reddit look like Outlook so you can pretend to be working while on reddit. Now I'm pretending to be on reddit. The ol' switcharoo yadda yadda

--found the site for those curious: http://pcottle.github.io/MSOutlookit/ but I think it's kind of broken now?

Even when I am not a fan of this old style I can see its charm and I think it works quite great, maybe old should not be the name though? why not classic?

Oh man, this is just beautiful.

It's like, what fukddit should've been all along.

Don't know if this bug is reported upstream or not.

My default listing is "subscribed", if I go to "Top All" and click next page button, I get "Top Sucscribed, page 2". (my current listing doesn't last)

Yeah this proves that old reddit wasn't peak design, the direction they were taking it in was just a bad one. Probably because it tried to discourage spending time in the comments sections, which IMO was the whole point of the site.

I wonder if they would be profitable if they had just included some non-intrusive text ads every 20 or 30 comments or so. Or add in code to detect when people are talking about a product and adding in an Amazon link to that product or something like that. The whole "ads must look like posts" thing was unnecessarily rigid, in hindsight.

My god. Its full of stars.

I wonder if RES would work on this?

Perfect. Now all I need is a ~~Reddit~~ Lemmy Enhancement Suite.
