Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

That's pretty nice! I think that the theme could def use a little love. I think the devs said at one point that they want to make it so any bootstrap theme could be imported but for now it's just the two themes.
Are you a designer?
Thanks! I'm a front-end developer :)
Maybe you could make your changes as a userscript first and let people play around with it? I'd def test it out :)
Fun fact: there used to be many more lemmy themes that were pretty cool but they got ripped out as too hard to maintain a while ago.
That sounds interesting! I wanted to be able to use it myself in case devs weren't interested in changing the UI. Can you tell me how it works and how to do that?
You add a browser extension that lets you write code that runs on any page you want. This video should be a decent explainer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DmQ_V9ZRlk
Instructions unclear, I wrote a Firefox addon instead :D https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/lemmy-modern-ui-theme
But you should be able to take the script and easily turn it into a userscript: https://github.com/pkrasicki/lemmy-modern-ui-theme-addon
It works with both light and dark theme, but sometimes the detection fails for me and applies wrong styles. I hope those hacks will last for some time though so that we could have a modern UI. I would change more stuff, but some things are not possible.
Very impressive, I dig it :)
Thanks :). Do you know where to find those older themes? It would be interesting to see how they were implemented.
