Hi all!

As many of you, I fallen in love with the UI customizations @the8thbit gifted us with its slim userstyle here. I simply love you, man.

Inspired by its design I customized it enough to make my transition from reddit as easy and familiar as possible, so the my updated UserStyle has:

  • moved the article preview image to the left

  • to keep the same formatting, added a placeholder image for article without one

  • full page width usage

  • colors vote buttons, magazine & user links

  • increased the size/color of "preview-image" icon

Hope someone will enjoy this experience like me :)

Since most posts for Artemis have been about iOS, here's a little preview for you Android users! in c/ArtemisApp@kbin.social

So much this.

All that vertical space could be replaced by a single, inline "menu button" that opens a contextmenu in overlay with all the possible actions (Reply, Share, ...).

But it will be for sure available in a future release ;)

Maybe I am the only one to have this "problem", but for the love of me, I can't stand to face anymore the 404 Not Found errors when I type directly "m/kbinmeta" instead of "m/kbinMeta" in my url address.

Everytime I'm like "what? they closed the magazine already??" before I realize I've missed the correct font case and start cursing myself.

Maybe I was too used to it in reddit, but when I explore kbin from my desktop it is a feature I am totally missing and it's driving me insane every couple of hours :\

So, I think it could be a "nice to have feature" to be able to input those names without caring of their lower/upper case letters.

Anyway, thanks @ernest for all your hard work! This beast is positively exploding :)

Joey for Reddit is/was the ULTIMATE client if you desire customization of the experience.
Man...I spent days on those font size and elements to be show/hide on the cards/threads. But it was in the end MY PERFECT experience
