Basically I just made something related to images. (My post about it, the instance is blocking the embed so open it in a new tab instead)

Currently on Kbin, when you click to show an image, it creates a container under the article with the full version of the image.
I played with it for half an hour and somewhat made it display inside the post instead (like new reddit and social media posts).

Here’s how it looks without it
Here’s how it looks with it

BUT, there’s two cons to it

  • Long images still display really small, so you need to open the thread to see it fully. That’s how a long image looks like
  • It doesn’t work on embeds (imgur posts NOT imgur images, articles, mastodon posts) yet, I will try to find a way to make them work with it

So my question to is, should I…

  • make it as a complete part of the theme
  • make it an optional feature you can enable, it’s disabled by default
  • make it an optional feature you can disable, it’s enabled by default
  • completely scrap it (a.k.a wait for someone to make a better version of it with a userscript instead of a userstyle)

edit: i forgot to put a second con

    I personally prefer userscripts because I can use them on mobile with Firefox. I wish I could use user styles on mobile.
    Enabled by default with turn off ability is a great option though. I’ll totally use the on pc
