It seems like this is the opposite of the issue we were having with Violentmonkey, we'll see what we can do about fixing it

I just reposted it, seems to be showing up now

I'm hoping there will eventually be kbin update or userscript that allows you to change the text size of comments separately from the rest of the site.

That should actually be somewhat easy to do, I just created an issue for it on GitHub. I'm gonna be busy the next few days so I won't be able to work on it until later, but maybe someone else will beat me to it!

Thanks for all of your help, I love being able to see Kibby up in the top left of my screen ᐠ( ᐛ )ᐟ

Honestly, it's a great question! While kbin is open source, making userscripts allows you to iterate on changes and get updates out very quickly. It's also much easier to start making userscripts than it is to contribute directly to the project, since you only really need to be familiar with JS, HTML, and CSS. To contribute to kbin, you need to be familiar with PHP and Twig, and set up your own instance for testing your changes.

Plus, while kbin is open source, not every single change will be merged, and there will likely always be features "missing" from it. Userscripts also give you a ton of freedom and flexibility in how you use sites, so you could make crazy changes that aren't remotely possible to merge into it.

Hope that answers your questions!

Ernest is definitely aware of some of these (he's been spying on us over at @kbinStyles lol), it'd be great to have them be built in! I love that we've got so many people making mods for kbin, it allows you to make things at a super quick pace

Is it not showing up? I made it earlier but it hasn't gotten any votes or comments, I wonder if that's why

Like the collapsible comments didn't work with the endless comment scrolling from kbin usability pack

Ooh, I had no idea that was a feature in KUP! I'll see what I can do to fix that. Should be a relatively easy fix

It might be kinda hard to pull off, but I’ll see what I can do. I’m not sure if KES can be used to (easily) modify the post rankings, but I think randomly hiding them based on a factor you set could work well. So if you set it to 50% for @memes, it’ll hide half of the posts from there on average.

It’s not perfect, but I think it strikes the right balance between seeing every post and blocking it. I’m busy this weekend but I’ll create an issue on KES’s GitHub repo and someone might beat me to it.

It is one now

In California, I'll see them running across the street sometimes. There's a lot of forests in my area and sometimes deer will wander out of them and into the neighborhoods

He briefly mentions making a "neural processor" in the middle of the video, so maybe it's possible down the line?

It's a perfect example of a post that would fit there

If it's all working properly now, you can make a PR to the testing branch and we'll take a look at it so @shazbot can merge it into the repository

I think this should work for inserting the button:

const siblingElement = document.querySelector('.dropdown .login').parentElement;

I'm not sure how to get rid of the :has() selector at the end of the CSS though. If you aren't able to swap them both out for an alternate method, I think leaving the banner in is fine for now

I think they do it to add motion, and make what would have been just a still shot look a bit more dynamic. I've been tempted to do the same thing in my videos, but more for diagrams and pictures, because it makes it a little more interesting than just staring at an unmoving picture for 30+ seconds

This is awesome! I'm really happy to see Sony make their own accessible controller

The term has actually been rolling around for a few weeks, it's just used to describe Lemmy and Kbin, since they're based around threads instead of twitter-like posts. Nothing to do with Threads by Meta
