Don’t think Beehaw has updated to Lemmy 0.18 yet.

I personally like Bees.

These themes are focused on reducing whitespace for all screensizes, make comment chains easier to follow, and aim to provide some variance from the default themes available on Lemmy.

These themes can be used with any extension that lets you inject custom CSS (such as Amino for Chrome and Edge).

For people making use of Stylus you can install the userCSS by going here, and choosing your theme and color scheme of choice in the userCSS preferences. Stylus makes themes like this a lot easier to use.

I've recently fixed some issues, and created a bunch of dark themes as well. Feel free to log any issues on the repo (including requests), and feel free to submit pull requests if you have any themes you've done that you'd like to add!

Just a note on light vs dark themes, the light themes are designed to work with the "Litely" theme in Lemmy's settings, and the dark themes are designed to work with "Darkly", so make sure to choose the applicable theme in your lemmy settings before applying one of the themes on the repo.

Special shoutout to @communist for the Ancom theme!

Here's an example of the yellow dark theme:

Yellow_Dark

EDIT: A note on Stylus, currently the userCSS only applies to beehaw.org, but you should be able to edit the theme to change which domains it applies to, for other Lemmy instances.

I've been meaning to upgrade but GPUs are stupid expensive where I live if you want something decent.

So I made a few custom Lemmy themes/CSS tweaks that I think the community would appreciate.

It aims to provide more color options, as well as reduce whitespace and make it easier to follow comment chains. Created it for use with beehaw, but should work with any Lemmy instance.

Just make sure to use the default litely theme in your Lemmy settings before testing these out, they were built with that in mind.

Please let me know if you have any other ideas or improvements, and feel free to submit pull requests!

How to use: Install any custom CSS extension/plugin for your browser, and paste the CSS in there. I personally use Amino for Edge and filter the CSS for the beehaw.org domain, but any custom CSS extension or plugin should work.

Factorio works well (at a smaller scale).

If we could end up with a theme that looks a lot more like https://kbin.social, I'd be so happy. My biggest gripe with Lemmy is all of the white space, and none of the current themes improve that at all. All of the theme options offered by kbin look amazing by comparison, and to my understanding Lemmy theming is done via CSS based on Bootstrap v4, so new theme creation should be straightforward enough.

It's to the point where, when visiting Lemmy instances, I use a custom CSS extension to modify a few properties to make it a bit more palatable to me.

If you guys ever need help creating custom themes to offfer to users I'd be happy to contribute.

Support for kbin? (beehaw.org)
submitted 1 year ago by HrBingR@beehaw.org to c/mlemapp@lemmy.ml

I know this is a very long shot, but is there potentially any planned support for kbin through mlem?

[-] HrBingR@beehaw.org 13 points 1 year ago

I kinda feel the same way. I've used the official Reddit app before, and I might've considered using a modded version of the official client, but I just feel gross even having a Reddit account after what they've done. Despite the fact that I use old.reddit as well, once Apollo is gone I reckon I'll delete my account.

[-] HrBingR@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

That website loads painfully slowly. Got impatient after a minute of loading and closed the tab.

[-] HrBingR@beehaw.org 8 points 1 year ago

Factorio all the way. Get bored of finishing the game, or crafting the perfect megabases? Prepare for mods that can take 1000s of hours to finish. Perfection.

As always, the factory must grow.

[-] HrBingR@beehaw.org 6 points 1 year ago

Agreed. They've just made the most tone-deaf update in /r/modnews as well that goes on to address zero concerns users have, while sending canned responses with zero actual useful information to the few comments they have replied to.

It's really sad to see Reddit in this state, as a long time user.

[-] HrBingR@beehaw.org 8 points 1 year ago

Same here! I really hope Lemmy starts catching on or Reddit will never listen to its users as currently there's no real Reddit competitor (aside from Lemmy, of course)
