I'm with you. I don't like the default Lemmy UI at all, but it's the most feature-complete as far as I can tell. I was a longtime Apollo user, so while Voyager feels similar at first glance it's mostly skin-deep. Kbin really does a great job with the look and feel, but there are a lot of frustrating bugs. I believe the dev has Been Going Through Some Shit (per his posts in kbinMeta) and I do not begrudge him taking care of personal life before a side project that blew up over the summer. So the result is that I mostly browse with kbin and switch to Lemmy if I need to do more than a text reply.

Hello fellow kbin enjoyer! In case you were unaware, in-line kbin images only show in kbin for some reason. Kinda like how we get links in place of in-line Lemmy images, except Lemmy users don't even see the links (at least not in the default mobile web UI or Voyager app). To get around it, I will either copy and paste the image URL in a comment edit, or just make the reply from a Lemmy account.
Now I'm wondering if the desktop interfaces work differently.
e: in case anyone is curious about the differences:
The article does not clearly cite its sources. ‘Based on 1019 responses’ from who? Sydneysiders? People from the NT?
This uncited survey from a for profit company, with major shareholders being venture capitalists, asset managers, shitbags, etc. with a history of possible poll manipulation means nothing.
Was that edited in after the fact? Why are people dogpiling based on that first sentence and ignoring the rest?
Believe it or not, also Teams.
After 13 years I finally got my partner to start watching TNG. It may take us another 13 years to finish, but it's a start.
"I was unsure of whether I could trust y'all with this info, but after talking with you a bit I think it's time to come clean." And then start talking about Second Impact as if it happened IRL and not in a famous anime. (Spoilers for Evangelion in the link.) There's already in-lore conspiracies and coverups to use as talking points.
It is a wrong answer. This is obviously a normal scale six string upright bass.

The same reason anyone takes a USB stick anywhere: to inconspicuously drop in a conspicuous place in hopes that some rube will find it, put it in their PC, and get pwnd.
Me before reading the article: It's got to be dates. Excel thinks everything is a date.
Me after reading the article: Even the workaround is halfhearted. Jeebus.
Also that ‘less readable font’ is called OpenDyslexic which was specifically designed to be readable to people with Dyslexia.
Neat, TIL. To my eyes, it looks like the font was rendered at a specific point size and then scaled up unevenly, like on an old LCD screen with a mismatched resolution. I found myself trying to zoom in to clear it up. If others find it more readable, that's awesome.
As for thematics, Dinos and comics started off with a heavy slant on neurodivergency (and navigating it) in general, ADHD included. Later ones skewed heavily towards "I am happy with my partner" type stuff. Which is cute and all, but doesn't hit the same.
...I have no idea if I'm looking at an actual show clip or a very well made fan thing. All I know is that I need to watch Lower Decks. But it's also something that my SO would appreciate, and it's hard enough to make time to get through TNG (her first Trek). Gah!
