You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
Here’s another user style https://userstyles.world/style/10301/better-lemmy.
It widens the display, changes bright green buttons to blue ones and improves the indentation of replies.
Don’t forget to buy thermal paste!
There is only one admin and it is also the only kbin developer.
Kbin is not ready, I’m sad to say.
There are hardly any experienced Rust developers. It’s going to be a big problem.
No, the whole thing is too much like work. The CSS has no license so anyone is free to rip it off and use it - someone who has already set up their lemmy development environment would be able to incorporate this CSS in a few minutes.
Plus I’m sure the devs are frantically dealing with far more important issues to do with scaling, spam and moderation so they won’t get to my PR for months. This user script approach gets a result out there immediately.
You need a browser extension. On Firefox it’s called “Stylus”. Once you’ve installed that, go to https://userstyles.world/style/10301 and click the ‘install’ button.
I’m not sure what the equivalent Chrome extension is but userstyles.world will tell you.
You can put that url into the search (magnifying glass in the top right) and then you’ll be able to view that post within your instance.
But there’s something even better - if you put “[email protected]” into the search then you’ll see a bunch of posts appear from that community.
Just above the list of search results is a link saying “<icon> [email protected] - 29 subscribers”. It is not very obvious or highlighted in any way. Lemmy should fix this.
Click on that and the contents of that community will be displayed - crucially, it’ll be displayed by your instance. You haven’t gone to lemmy.ml, you’re still on your home instance (check the address bar of your browser).
In the top right there is a nice big “Subscribe” button. Click it.
Agreed and what this shows is the marketplace of ideas cannot be owned by a corporation. The interests of capital will always come first.
Check out https://kbin.social.
IMO the UI of Kbin is much better, although I really miss the ‘collapse thread’ function. That’s a deal-breaker for me.
Very interesting, thanks!
