Alexandrite is slick, gorgeous, and brings a lot to the Lemmy experience. I highly recommend giving it a try.

Just want to add to my comment that the #1 reason I sometimes prefer the browser over an app is that you can open content in multiple tabs, just like on desktop. I can have several tabs open, each dedicated to viewing one community. Easier to cut and paste urls and other content into other apps. I don’t like being confined to one viewport for everything. It’s nice being able to interrupt reading a discussion to go down a rabbit hole in another tab, then close it and pick up where I left off. Navigation in the apps can be generally unpredictable right now. Or you completely lose your place and have to go find it again. Lots of pros to using a browser for it.
