This is a style I primarily made for myself, but why not share it. It’s inspired by some of the old subreddit styles and the old youtube design.

  • Should work with litely and darkly plus compact variants.
  • Uses rounded thumbnails to external links.
  • Uses square thumbnails to internal images.
  • Colored proprietary social media thumbs with their brand colors. (So you don’t accidentally click on a youtube link for example).

There still are some things I have to fix in the dark theme, like buttons and card headers for example.

    If you are on Linux you should be able to create a shell script that change your system color to dark or light depending on the time. On gnome there may even be some extension that do that already.

    If you use Windows there may also be options to do the same with task scheduler.

      Yeah, on Gnome there is a shell extension that automatically switches between light and dark system themes at a predefined time. The only problem is getting Lemmy to follow suit.

      I’ll try the Browser Default setting again and see if that works this time 👍

      EDIT: It does. I’m an idiot.
