So, I was trying to use the official “web app” for Lemmy, and, once again, it’s just a link to Github. I’m no programmer and I just want to use the app, but have no clue what all those files are for. The tutorials on YouTube are like 1 hours long and are intended for programmers. It kind of happens more and more (links to github) and it gets me anxious every time. I am not a digital idiot at all, but this lacks information. Thanks!

    Yea, maybe that page is a little misleading. lemmy-ui is probably what you’re using now. It’s the “webserver” that comes with lemmy that lets you access it from a browser (phone or desktop.) It’s not the ONLY option, but most instances (sites like lemmy.ml) use it. You can expect to see a bunch of phone and even other apps on that page as lemmy gets bigger.

      Yep. Jerboa is cool, but it’s really unstable on my phone for some reason. Looking forward to see all the new options that are coming soon. Thanks for the help.
