we already collectively dislike a substantial number of 0.18+'s UI decisions, most of which are minor but are already adding up to be that much more annoying collectively. maybe we can sand some of these off with theming in the future. for now though please hang with this and petition them to merge better decisions in the future, thanks
Well on the plus side, the Lemmy frontend is designed to be replaceable; there’s even an old forum style frontend for Lemmy as an example. If Lemmy-UI shits the bed too hard, then we can always make a better one.
