[userscript] (grease/violent/tamper) *monkey script to reformat Lemmy's look and feel to old.reddit with RES

userscript called "old.reddit" found here: https://github.com/soundjester/lemmy_monkey

  • (recently updated for Lemmy v0.18)

  • original thread link here

  • This is primarily for desktop clients. At the moment, formatting get a little crazy below 1280 px wide. There are ways to address this, but I have not at this time.

  • script will be updated as suggested

    • significant changes have been made to address alignment, spacing, and other format issues. v1.1 will be where I stop for a while.
  • there are two script versions: old.reddit and old.reddit.compact. The primary difference is that the "compact" version greatly reduces thumbnail size and padding space.

  • notice: current script unblurs NSFW

(linked thumbnail shows old.reddit.compact version of the script)

  • great! Have you consider packing this up as a full theme for Lemmy?

    • yeah, i keep trying to look at the bootstrap themes but it just isn't super clear how I would edit it to be color agnostic. Like, hopefully this script works with whatever color theming you choose, it just changes the layout.

      • Maybe it's enough to make a pull request to the original CSS files here? I would guess the Lemmy devs would rather focus more on the backend right now
