Very new to lemmy, and I'm pretty lost, but if I've stuck around is because of photon, it made it at least a bit more accessible to find stuff and get a reddit like feel without much effort.

What does "opinionated" mean in this context?
It doesn’t try to cater to everyone and there might be controversial design choices. This can mean anything from something great and ahead of time to absolute horrors of user interface design [link removed] depending on your perspective and a particular app in question. I really like what Photon does and how polished it is but it’s definitely not for me.
Lol I tried the absolute horror pipilo for half a minute before I deleted it
That 5.0 out of 5 (1 Rating) seems a bit suspicious. You should leave a review to make it more accurate.
Its useful for ppl who like it, me not liking it is more of a personal preference, it didnt have any issues other than my subjective opinion
Eh, don’t bully some random developer that created an app few people like. It was made for weirdos and those weirdos must appreciate having their own app.
And tesseract is this on steroids.
Looks like a custom client. Cool
Awesome, love the design - something new for the homelab!
You know what would be really cool? Mbin support!
This is what feddit.nl uses as an alternative UI. It seems to me pretty much the UI of new reddit vs the default which is more the old UI of reddit. Also images don't load well on photon. If you click into them, they are often the thumbnail just blown up instead of the full res version.
