Let’s keep guiding them to better UX

I've been trying the Photon/Voyager approach, the issue is that some people despise Photon and modernist interfaces with a passion, there's a comment on that thread I had to link to old.lemmy.zip

Some people will never be happy...

I think people who like .old tend to be more tech savvy, and can figure out how to find a UI they like

Maybe alongside the modern UIs, you could include a line about the mlmym interfaces.

But then they'll say it's confusing to have several links to the same website x)

In my opinion, most people won't get confused by the 'old' interface being at a different subdomain, especially as Reddit did it themselves (apparently they had new.reddit.com which hosted an older redesign than reddit.com, like wtf!?? But somehow people understood that distinction, so this should be fine) Then again, I could be too much of a nerd and overestimating people :P (insert relevent xkcd here)

btw, does sopuli.xyz have the mlmym interface?
