Following recommendations from the comments I implemented material you with dynamic colors and pushed content to the beginning and I really liked the result

The idea is to keep accounts synced using an background service btw

I’ll keep improving it and I aim to release a build for those who want to test, it’s FOSS

    Nice work!

    Unfortunately it seems a lot of users need apps like this now, since the Lemmy network is heavily fragmented already.

    That’s both a plus and a minus of the technology.

    Would be nice with some visual map that shows which instance talks to which other instance, blocked communities, and so on.

    For example, beehaw doesn’t federate with Lemmy.world. How will the users know this if they are new?

        I just joined Lemmy, is there somewhere I can read how it all works? Seems exciting, I’ve been saying we need a decentralized social media for more than a decade now.

        Saw that. Perhaps every community should instead defederate from lemmy.world. More server outages AGAIN today. Maybe they deserve to be attacked at this point.

      Great idea but for now I’ll just log to the user what couldn’t be synced, implementing something like this would be hard for now, maybe a future improvement
