Have you considered asking the Lemmy devs if they like this? I find it quite the improvement, maybe you can upstream these changes so every server can enjoy them!

Any idea on how to make a compact view? I am kinda new to css and miss old UIs.
Bless you. Honestly the UI is the biggest thing that's making trying to stay on this nice community difficult! old.reddit had a UI that felt very comfortable to read, while Lemmy is... less so, for some reason. I hope it improves in general.
Any plans for Beehaw to just fork Lemmy and start applying these quick fixes?
No clue, Im not a mod haha. I hope it wouldnt be too hard - small stuff like this could keep people from going to kbin. Honestly, Im surprised the main lemmy branch has as shitty a front end as it does. Im a back end web dev, and it bothers me, which means it could use a lot of work lol
