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)

    Awesome work! Would it be possible to add the “expand image/video/text” button from RES? Preferably with the option to increase/decrease the size of images by dragging with the mouse.

    I’m talking about these: https://imgur.com/a/1yH5FTN

    That would perfect my experience!
