Highly recommend both the script Kbin Federation Awareness and kbin social add home-instance name to username. Makes it a lot easier to tell where things are originating from at a glance!

The former takes people from other domains and makes their posts green text on green background. The colors are manually set and not reflective of any magazine styles or the like, but I have no idea why rgba(20, 45, 20, 1.0) is the color someone chose. I recommend anyone who wants that script edit line#41 to something like GM_addStyle('[data-is-federated-content="true"] { background-color: #EEE; }');, but even then this is a bit annoying to have to do manually.

It works on dark theme (I use only dark).

On dark it's light (white) text on dark green background, and it looks fine (I would prefer black or similar, but this works).

Your edit breaks dark design because you get white/grey background.

I went a bit farther and used the built in variable to set color, as well as setting the font weight down to match the "n hours ago" text, and changing " - " to "@" so that the uesrname matched the standard fediverse string that you can put into search boxes

I'll publish this properly as soon as greasyfork sends me an email to authenticate my new account, but in the meantime here's the source. EDIT: Email has yet to arrive 13 hours later, I doubt it's going to. Anyone interested feel free to publish this somewhere it's easier for people to install.

I had slept on that particular script, thanks for pointing it out!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wish I could use these on FF mobile.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can use Tampermonkey on Firefox mobile to run these scripts. I just installed both of them they work great!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is the way! Though I personally prefer Violentmonkey.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

While I personally agree with you on desktop Firefox, Firefox on Android (or at least most user-facing versions of it), have a curated list of approved addons and it's generally impossible or at best incredibly difficult to install any addons outside that list. Tampermonkey is included but Violentmonkey is not.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Not incredibly difficult, it just requires 5 min setup, and creating your add-on collection

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

If you enable developer mode in android firefox, there is option to add custom addon collection.

It is only couple of steps.

Also firefox beta/nightly has couple of additional addons by default

All of these userscripts are great. I just wish someone would do one to get rid of card view

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You mean the thing you get when you hover over someone's profile pic?

Why!?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not sure if it's just a me problem or a wider known issue but both of those scripts stop working for me when I have infinite scrolling enabled. They work great on the 1st page but when it loads the next page they both stop working.

Thanks for the heads up!
