Why is no one using CSS to make their magazine's visual appearances more unique? That was the main draw of old Reddit for me.

(I mean I am, but that is why I asked)

I'm the type to tick the 'Ignore custom css' checkbox, so obviously not everybody's interested in that feature.

[-] GizmoLion@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Yep, every time. I was on reddit to read the content, not browse myspace lol.

[-] Jaysyn@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

I haven't found that option yet.

[-] wahming@kbin.social 19 points 1 year ago

Oh no, that doesn't exist here yet. I was referring to the option in old reddit

I'm in the same boat. So I just threw together a quick userscript which removes custom CSS on magazines:

You'll need Greasemonkey, Tampermonkey (browser addons) or similar to install the script.

Thank you, I've come across one (1) magazine with custom CSS and it didn't take the font colors in kbin's dark themes into account.

(The mod was super cool about it and reverted the change until a better solution could be found, but I knew then I would need this option in the future)

It's possible for mods to make themes that correspond to each specific kbin theme selection. Maybe I nee to write up a post and share how to do it.

[-] harmonea@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Oh, from my brief poke into magazine settings it didn't look possible; I'm sure people would really appreciate it!

[-] RheingoldRiver@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks very much for this. I really appreciate that the option to customize exists for people who want it; equally, I appreciate that the option to NOT have customizations exists for me :)

[-] FermatsLastAccount@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I think that was an RES option

[-] cdiv@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Disabling custom CSS everywhere was always a built-in option, as I recall. RES added the ability to disable custom CSS for individual subreddits, which reddit later added as a reddit gold feature.
