IBM sure does suck donkey balls but I really don’t think that particular thing is their fault.

Tell me you are a psychopath without telling me you are a psychopath.

From “don’t be evil” to “you know, what’s so bad about being evil anyway?”

Yeah that’s really cool for all those Linux phones out there. Oh wait, there are like two and a half models in total and none of them are great? Damn.

There was another Twitler who tried to create an everything Reich.

Apple is a litigation company disguised as hardware sales. Steve “thermonuclear war” Jobs saw to this.

It used to be Relay for me as well. Other apps had neat features I wish Relay had gotten as well, but I couldn’t get away from its neat UI and UX even though I tried pretty much every third-party reddit app there was.

I’m certainly sad to leave a handful of my favorite communities behind but Reddit overall can burn down for all I care. Even before the API BS and Huffmann lying through his teeth the Reddit experience had gotten more and more annoying aside from the coziest of subreddits.

Time to move on and perhaps some of the app devs try their hand at a sleek threadiverse app with all of the QoL goodies.

I know that I certainly believed this article to be very well crafted satire at first. Because how could it possibly so very on the nose in reality?

Yeah, there are extensions that enable injecting custom CSS. I’m using Stylus in Chrome (switched to that from Stylish about two years ago) and essentially you need to override the native CSS with lots of !important style declarations. Basically like Inspect Element but will load every time once the relevant website(s) is done loading.

If the HTML classes and ids are straightforwards that’s fairly easy, like old.reddit for instance. But every time they change the classes you need to go in a manually tweak it. And once a site starts obfuscating their code it’s not worth the effort anymore.
But it’s possible and for a while I honed my meager CSS skills by doing my own bespoke stylesheets. :)

Yeah, you’re right. They try but it’s not the same.

Before Dark Reader I used to make custom dark theme CSS for all the sites that I frequented heavily and spent so much time tweaking things so it came out “mostly right”.

Dark Reader isn’t perfect all the time but the peace of mind it grants me is immeasurable:)

My goodness, so it didn’t just feel like Huffman was a discount Elon but that’s literally what he is aspiring to?
I don’t know what could be more pathetic than the MBA*hole emulating the Blood Emerald Silverspoon Kid Without Skills.

Reddit is so going down the drain, the downward cycle was palpable over the last years but now they’re accelerating with Mach 3.

Count this as my vote as well. Take every other extension away (uBlock Origin excluded obv) but I simply can’t endure the eye-searing pain of the internet without Dark Reader.
