Love it! Reddit was unusable to me with its crazy mods, so I mostly lurked. I also personally find lemmings to be more welcoming than redditors.

And I like to be somewhere closer to the start of the journey we're all making here on Lemmy even though it's been years since it was released. We're still early (but for real, unlike with creepto).

I suppose it's not that unclear if you compare the revenue of all other industries combined to the revenue of the advertising industry. The ratio is pretty large and every type of industry buys ads, so it trickles down from everywhere.

Description

It adds a scroll to parent button to nested comments (after clicking the "more" button). If you then press the more button on the parent comment, you'll see a back to child button that will scroll back to the comment you came from on click (also after clicking the "more" button).

Install

  1. Install via Greasy Fork or copy the code from there.

  2. Replace the @match value with your instance.

Notes

Tested on Firefox with Tampermonkey and Violentmonkey.

Interesting little essay.

Perhaps one could find it a bit Ludditic. But technology is a good tool that is oft misused like any other.

Not sure if belongs here, but couldn't think about where else to post it. 🙏

Read why "Web Environment Integrity" is terrible, and why we must vocally oppose it now. Google's latest maneuver, if we don't act to stop it, threatens our freedom to explore the Internet with browsers of our choice.
