The GitHub page looks awfully quiet and the website has stopped working for me recently.
I would be really sad as it is the best looking Lemmy web experience imo.

The dev is probably on a break. Either way, hopefully he comes back. It’s still working for me though. Are you using it directly via alexandrite.app or via your instance?
It’s still too early to tell anything, hope they come back too!
The Lemmy ecosystem is weird because there are so many Lemmy tools maintained by a single person yet at the same time the majority of Lemmy’s user base is tech-savy (we’re mostly nerds working in the IT field) and we should be inclined to collaboration rather than competition, considering the amount of criticism about western capitalism here.
The reason may be that many projects started out as experiments/for fun, or that we are unwelcoming to new contributors, who knows…

The ones criticizing are almost never the ones doing anything useful about it.
I’m I bad for asking for more features from a busy dev?
Not bad, but it would help a lot more if you reached out to him and asked how you could help him. Or, in case he says he is no longer interested/able to work on it, what would be the best way to find someone who can continue developing the project.
It might have something to do with Lemmy.ca.
Probably. I use the dev-hosted one and it works fine.
Not sure. I’ve recently moved over to photon though, as it’s more feature rich than alexandrite, and almost as nice to look at
I was wondering how Photon compared. I came from mlmym originally.
Please do not end up like bean or Leomard.
