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)

    It looks really cool but the side margins are waaay too small for my taste. I tried putting some little 1rem margins back in the container css but that gave a bad bottom scrollbar (which is the most annoying on the communities list). It’s getting late and there is work tomorrow but I might look into it more later.
