Most of these are supported in my theme (if you don't mind the austere appearance), and can be used in conjunction with my scripts to add what you asked for.

As for no. 2: not sure what you are referring to by "all," here. What content specifically? You mean show everything before the page fold?

As for no. 3: what page is that? Aren't magazines appended with an @ if they are on other instances?

Also check https://kbin.social/m/kbinStyles for a wealth of other client-side scripts to hot-rod your experience

My opinion on it is that adding non-critical frontend suggestions to a project already in its infancy creates needless noise for the developers working on structural/backend changes. Moreover, such suggestions may clash with the designers' own vision. Client-side changes are seamless in that they can be continuously modified in a non-invasive manner after the fact if the end-user does not like the designs being made upstream, which (quite likely) may be the case even after the project is stable. So there is good reason for them to coexist. Moreover, insofar as such changes are in JavaScript or CSS, they serve as a proof of concept that the upstream developers can deploy into their existing codebase if they later decide they like those third-party fixes.

Here's an updated version that should handle all scenarios

You can run them concurrently with each other, just stick the ones that work in one version into the respective extension, no need to migrate them all. That's what I do. GM syntax has evolved a lot over the years and I don't think the extensions have 100% parity with each other without using workarounds like unsafeWindow, which is generally frowned upon

I think violentmonkey doesn't respond well to jquery in some situations, I'll have to pick through the documentation. I'd recommend tampermonkey as a close alternative

What browser and monkey version? Doesn't work in violentmonkey from what I saw so far

OK, I was able to reproduce it. It doesn't apply to posts where the thumbnail is auto-extracted from an upstream page. It only applies to posts with an attached image (a meme pic etc). I've made a note to fix it.

Not sure I follow you. I don't have auto media preview on. This only uses the full-size images, it stops loading the downscaled thumbnails from the server. You can click to trigger a modal or you can middle click to open in new tab.

In theory yes, but it looks like the full URL doesn't actually reside on the index page. The article entries just contain a truncated TLD. I agree that the article title should click through to the full source rather than opening comments.

Alright, I've updated it with a toggle and opened a ticket for it here. You can navigate to the install script again and it will prompt you to 'Update Style" on the left sidebar.

If this is satisfactory, I will close the ticket, otherwise let me know what resolution display you are working with and how much dead space we are talking about here. If you want to submit other issues, the best place to do so would be through there, although you must register an account to submit tickets. I am happy to fix any bugs or issues you find or entertain other ideas.

If you feel strongly about it, I've added a sponsor button to the top of the repository. I maintain a collection of open-source projects (chiefly QoL utilities for Linux) there, so if you throw a few bucks at one, you'd be contributing to the ongoing maintenance of all of them. Thanks.

Sure, I could make it a toggle.
