After some constant issues with lemmy’s default UI and its interaction with other services, I’ve opted add all of the most mature alternative web frontends: photon (looks like “new reddit”, will be the default and also available at https://photon.communick.news), mlmym (looks like “old reddit”, available at https://classic.communick.news) and voyager (looks like apollo, available at https://m.communick.news)

Later this week I hope to have a proper post-mortem. I’m still not sure what is the issue with lemmy-ui, but these changes was a good lesson in how to setup the Lemmy backend without the UI and also on how to deploy Lemmy in scenarios that are more complex than the one for self-hosters.

    Yeah, I’m finding myself using the mlmym and alexandrite frontends because of the lacking functionality. I’ll add lemmy-ui back.
