edit 2023-07-02 - updated for new layout changes. Still need couple more classes in lemmy-ui for some big containers & comment stuff. Stay tuned and maybe I can get this in the main repo.
You use an extension like Stylus (not "Stylish" sorry) to graft the CSS onto your favorite Lemmy instance's CSS. Until they move everything around and it breaks at least.
This is great, thank you! It feels more like old-reddit, as you said, and I think having this option would make it even easier for people to transition to Lemmy. Well done!
Note Lemmy has a serious lack of properly marked up HTML, things like ".post-listing .title" don't exist so there are nasty CSS selectors included here.
Might want to create a git repo for this (maybe other themes) and get it converted to a full fledged theme for lemmy. I tacked your changes onto the end of the darkly-red theme and seems to look nice. I was just too lazy to remove the bits from the original theme. A git repo would be good though since a lot of the responses suggest coming back for updates. Git will let people know if there is a change and they can see what they are as they change.
Yeah, I'm working on pushing some changes into lemmy-ui right now to make themes in general work. It might not even be far from there to getting user-contributed themes baked into the main lemmy-ui and being user selectable.
I personally like how things are currently. A local front page for the instance I’m apart of and a front page of communities I subscribe to. If I want to see what’s going on in other instances I can go visit those.
Yeah it's the hr, which somehow i can still see. I have the same css on startrek.website and while it's still not hidden there, setting the margin does work, but not on lemmy.world for some reason. I can see that both sites have the same class for the hr (my-3), so i'm kinda stumped at the moment.
I also added the following to change the width and spacing of columns, and again it works on startrek.website, but not on lemmy.world. It's really strange.
