Did the entire server get put on Alexandrite by default, and how do I get off Alexandrite and go back to default Lemmy UI? (ani.social)

I typed in "ani.social" in my phone browser, expecting to see the normal Lemmy UI. Instead I'm confronted with the Alexandrite front end. I don't think I clicked anything to give me this front end; I think it's a total surprise to me, it's possible I'm an idiot who missed something and accidentally clicked a setting. Asking for help here after clicking around in more settings trying to figure out how to turn it off.

photon.ani.social's on a old version that uses a different way of lemmy's resizing, they're ~11 months out of date

I could potentially add an option to waste heaps of bandwidth and load full images for everything (like everyone else, including lemmy-ui) but it seems wasteful

Yeah I haven't updated Photon in quite a while. Updated just now! Thanks!

Maybe give the option then, default to crunching. But I like the card system in Alexandrite & lemmy, that auto expands the post. I enrolled here because I enjoy my instance’s «Local» posts, so I would be wasting (2 Bw Post ×) for the local feed if I expanded every post.

For «All», sure I can see the (subs clients posts Bw ×) savings, but not «local.»
