Dansup is seriously great at designing social platforms. I don’t have much personal use for it, as I never cared for instagram, but I think Pixelfed is the best designed platform on the Fediverse. I’m sure Loops will be great too. Fantastic name too.

I use the Sync app to enjoy Lemmy, and I miss a design revamp on the official Lemmy front-end UI for Web when I’m using a desktop.
I like lemmy’s design, but I thought it’s user onboarding process was pretty bad when I joined. It’s much better since the join-lemmy.org redesign.
Yeah, the name is really good.
Kudos to the guy for doing stuff + it being FOSS, but I wouldn’t call him “great at designing social platforms”. Pixelfed is fediverse instagram, loops is fediverse tiktok
Just wait 'til you find out that Lemmy is also a fediverse clone of a toxic platform
Pretty much everything on the fediverse is just a clone of another social media. Pixelfed still has the most intuitive design for new users and a great onboarding process. Took Mastodon a while to catch up.
Yea part of the point in designing these alternatives (to my understanding) is that the userbase can feel immediately at home, there is little barrier to entry
