YSK: If your instance updated to 0.18.1, there's new themes in your profile settings, including compact and pure black themes! (for the website version of lemmy, version number at bottom of page)

Apologies for piggybacking this post so late especially, but - shameless plug - I have a couple themes based on nord which anyone can add to their instance. I would actually appreciate any feedback on them, so please feel free to check them out (github link)

Hey, I’m not sure where else to ask this, but I’m trying to switch to darkly. I change the setting over to darkly, click on ‘save’, and then go back to lemmy.world but it never sticks. What’s going on?

bdonvr, 9 months ago

The themes kinda get stuck in cache. Try clearing your browser cache/data

Tidesphere, 9 months ago

I’ll try that, thank you! This is my first day :)

Absolute legend. Now all I need is an app like rif with a pure black theme and I’m home.

BastingChemina, 10 months ago

I’m using connect that has a pure black theme.

Madbrad200, 10 months ago

most of the apps have amoled themes

The settings don’t seem to stick for me for some reason. I hit save and it looks good on my profile page but then when I navigate back to lemmy.world it goes back to the “browser default” setting.

I had the same problem, but it worked after I closed all other Lemmy tabs in my browser.

My favourite is https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/136ab26f-47d5-4950-a1b1-31e1aca188c0.png

Thanks for mentioning it! The compact theme is the one I need.

Well, hello there, vaporwave-dark, I think we’re going to get along swimmingly

ivanafterall, 10 months ago

I'm using Tokyo Night on kbin. Though Solarized light looks slick, if you like light themes.

Pure black looks good on my phone. Get them OLED gains. (Been using Lemmy as an installed app from chrome/brave)

Speckle, 10 months ago

I’ve been using Liftoff and think it’s got a really nice UI. Just found the OLED setting and it’s very, very black and pretty.

Thanks, just made some changes to mine, wish we could get rid of the whitespace on the sides without an extension.

TesterJ, 10 months ago

Vaporwave Dark is broken for me. Post titles are the same color as the background, so I can’t read them unless I highlight them. Bummer because I’d like to use this theme.

bdonvr, 10 months ago

Try closing the browser after changing themes, got rid of those kind of bugs for me

TesterJ, 10 months ago

Just tried it, no dice. Thanks for the suggestion though.

redcalcium, 10 months ago

Is it working in incognito mode? If yes, you’ll probably need to clear your browser cache.

TesterJ, 10 months ago

That was it! Thanks a bunch.

redcalcium, 10 months ago

Whenever you have a computer problem, it’s usually the cache or dns.

Tenthrow, 10 months ago

We need an LCARS theme now.

jerome, 10 months ago

Yaaaaas.

giant_smeeg, 10 months ago

Good man. Black on my phone thanks

j4k3, 10 months ago

There is a pure black setting now. Anyone with an AMOLED device needs to change to this now. Making the background full black turns off the LEDs in these regions greatly reducing power consumption of the device.

nyatto, 10 months ago

I really like the darkly-pureblack theme, but I wish there was also a darkly-compact-pureblack :). I also like the vaporwave themes, but I wish it would let us choose a different monospace font (or any other font for that matter).

BlackSpasmodic, 10 months ago

I actually like the nostalgia font. I just need that and pureblack in compact aka widescreen.

eroc1990, 10 months ago

I do like the compact views. The spanning across the entire width of the screen doesn’t feel entirely right layout-wise, imo, but my home feed being able to show me more info at a glance is nice.
