I wish this were added to the official web UI too. I know they probably have reasons against it but just let us choose for ourselves. They can leave Hot the default but I do think the votes matter and the highest voted comments are usually worth reading.

Started at 0 for me using mlmym

Looks awesome, this might be my new go-to means of browsing Lemmy. I was using a userstyle to make Lemmy more like old reddit, but this is a literal almost 1-to-1 replica of the UI I’ve enjoyed for so long and it feels pretty much completely functional.

I’d like it to let you choose your preferred comment sort method though, so I could pick sort by top as default like reddit did.

Absolutely not. I hate that pay to win bullshit. We shouldn’t be pushing for monetization that encourages or creates any sort of “premium user experience”. That’s corporate bullshit. Paying for the service should improve the service for everyone, not just for yourself or for some comment you want to feel superior to everyone else by “paid upvoting”.
