Lemmy Plugins and Userscripts

I decided to re-write my script from the ground up.

I noticed some not so good parts about it and now it should be more clear and easy for users to edit themselves when they want to add/remove custom links.

Enjoy!

Edit: I have added a scroll to top button. It will appear when you start scrolling.

Similar to my last submission but not specific to YouTube, this is a very basic bookmarklet that does nothing but create a submission to Lemmy of the currently open website. It does not fill out the thumbnail and hopes that Lemmy will generate a proper one on its own.

You may need to replace "lemmy.world" in the script with the domain of the Lemmy instance that you use.

How you add a bookmarklet is by creating a new web browser bookmark and pasting the JavaScript code where the URL would go. Something like this:

The way Lemmy works, you may be prompted to login again. Lemmy can do weird things like ignore your session when referrer isn't sent. Still easier than filling out the video title yourself.

There is also the "hidden" feature that you may enter a community ID as a URL parameter (currently empty). I think the ID for a specific community varies depending on your home instance. On Lemmy.World this community here is 7133, for example. You can find out the ID when you're on the Create Post page and have a look at the address bar:

This may be useful, should you want to submit to a specific communtiy directly.

Code is public domain.

Apparently YouTube blocked the IPs of the several Lemmy servers such as Lemmy.World, so you cannot just conveniently post a video and get title and thumbnail filled out. Basically, these tasks need to be done locally instead of the Lemmy server. If you use a Lemmy client such as Thunder and use the share sheet from YouTube with it, the title is already filled out.

Here are two bookmarklets you can use. The way bookmarklets work is that you create a new web browser bookmark and paste the JavaScript code where the URL would go. Something like this:

The first bookmarklet is a generic one and should work for everyone regardless of browser choice. When in the YouTube browser tab, you just click on it and a new tab opens to create a new post. Title and thumbnail are filled out.

You need to replace "lemmy.world" with the domain name of your Lemmy instance.

I cannot post the code directly in code markup because stupid Cloudflare thinks I'm doing an SQL Injection. 🙄

The second bookmarklet is for when you use Firefox Multi-Account Containers, for example when you're logged into YouTube using a dedicated account and you don't want it to affect tabs with Google services you might use with a different account. If you don't have that requirement, just use the first script.

The way Lemmy works, you may be prompted to login again. Lemmy can do weird things like ignore your session when referrer isn't sent. Still easier than filling out the video title yourself, IMO.

Code is public domain.

Source code & userscript here: https://git.disroot.org/Electricd/LemmyDiscloseModIdentities

This userscript reveals mod and admin names in Lemmy instances' modlogs

Only works on some compatible instances which did not enable the "Hide mod names from modlog" setting

At the time of writing, some known compatible instances are:

• lemmy.world
• lemmynsfw.com
• lemmy.ca
• lemmy.blahaj.zone
• beehaw.org
• lemmybefree.net
• maybe a lot more, I didn't test many

Feel free to give it a spin and add any feature requests on github!

I mean, I wanted to start work on it, but if someone's already released/working on one then I'd just happily use those instead.

Also, the absence of a thing usually means it's not possible to have. In my mind I think it's easy to have userscript code make API posts on behalf of the user, but maybe somehow in the intricate layers of tech it's made impossible or tedious. If so, I'd like to know before I learn it the hard way.

There are likely various edge cases I've missed, and I am not too sure on performance compared to a purpose-built userscript, but these seem to work well enough for my use cases.

Throw these to My filters in uBO settings. May also work with AdGuard, but I can't support you there as I don't use it. Other ad blockers probably won't work, but then why are you using an ad blocker that isn't uBO anyway?

Remove the exclamation mark preceding the rules and adjust the placeholders accordingly. If you need multiple filters copy paste the appropriate lines.

You may need to replace the lemmy.* part if your home instance is on a different (sub)domain. I'm not using .lemmy-site and a global selector for performance reasons.

! Post filters use :has instead of :upward to take advantage of native CSS support on browsers that implement it.
! If :has is not implemented, uBO will emulate it via JS. :upward might be more efficient on those cases.

! Lemmy: Filter post by link domain
! lemmy.*##.post-listing:has(.fst-italic[href*="example.com"])

! Lemmy: Filter post by keyword in title
! lemmy.*##.post-listing:has(.post-title:has-text(/\bkeyword\b/i))

! Lemmy: Filter post by author instance
! lemmy.*##.post-listing:has(.person-listing[title$="@example.com"])

! Lemmy: Filter post by community instance
! lemmy.*##.post-listing:has(.community-link[title$="@example.com"])

! Lemmy: Filter post by instance (author or community)
! lemmy.*##.post-listing:has([title$="@example.com"]:is(.person-listing, .community-link))

! Lemmy: Filter post by community name (any remote instance)
! lemmy.*##.post-listing:has(.community-link[title^="!politics@"])

! Lemmy: Filter post by community name (home instance, though in this case you can just use lemmy's own blocking)
! lemmy.*##.post-listing:has(.community-link[title="!politics"])

! Lemmy: Filter comment by keyword 
! lemmy.*##.md-div:has-text(/\bkeyword\b/i):upward(.comment)

! Lemmy: Filter comment by author instance
! lemmy.*##.person-listing[title$="@example.com"]:upward(.comment)

! Lemmy: Filter both by author instance
! lemmy.*##.person-listing[title$="@example.com"]:upward(:is(.post-listing, .comment))

Next up is to actually rewrite post links, which is probably the most interesting feature.

I put this together based on another very similar script (attributed, of course) I found on beehaw that forces external links to open in a new tab. Should work on every Lemmy instance by checking the header. While it uses http*://*/* as the match, it only executes any logic if the isLemmy check returns true.

Honestly, this has improved my desktop experience significantly, it was killing me before.

Hope it helps, feedback/suggestions/contributions welcome!

If you try to access a community on your local instance and it gives you a 404, this automatically takes you to your local instance's search instead and puts the community in for you.

Recommended to use with https://sh.itjust.works/post/33762](local instance redirect script) by @soy@lemmy.world

I started using Tampermonkey today, so dunno if this works with GreaseMonkey, but I assume it does.

// ==UserScript==
// @name         Lemmings Redirect
// @version      1.0
// @description  Redirect to your local Lemmy instance
// @author       @reddthat.com/u/Fanghole
// @match        https://*/c/*@*
// @icon         https://join-lemmy.org/static/assets/icons/favicon.svg
// ==/UserScript==

var unknownLemmy =
  document.body.textContent === "404: couldnt_find_community";

if (unknownLemmy) {
    // Get URL info
    var splitUrl = location.href.split("/");
    var split2 = splitUrl[4].split("@");
    var instanceUrl = split2[1];
    var community = split2[0];
    var searchUrl =
        "https://" + splitUrl[2] + "/search/q/!" + community + "%40" + instanceUrl + "/type/All/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1";

    window.location.replace(searchUrl);
}

This extension helps users subscribed to Lemmy communities by adding an icon before mentions or URLs related to other communities. These mentions can be in the format “ !communityname@instance.domain !communityname@instance.domain” or through URLs like “https://lemmy.ml/c/memes%E2%80%9D.

By clicking the icon, users are directed to the kbin URL of that community. However, there’s currently a bug preventing it from working on /kbin (ironically), and I’ve already reported the issue on Git.

I’m in the process of publishing the extension on Firefox and Chrome extension stores, along with making the source code available.

I would appreciate your input on whether you find this extension useful.

github link: https://github.com/driccio98/kbin-link

Works on lemmy instances. You specify your lemmy host in the preferences and it automatically adds a small icon before all addresses, both on communities and in threads/posts

Already a firefox extension https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kbin-link/

it even added the icon to an address on github

Edit: @redyoshi49q@furry.engineer has designed a better solution using only CSS, and this should be used instead of the old script! If you're reading this page for the first time, ignore this message.

This userstyle adds a red heart next to people that are from your home server, and any other servers that you manually define. Spot your server buddies out in the wild!

Instructions:

1. Install Stylus extension for firefox/chrome

2. "Write new style" in the addon settings

3. Copy paste the CSS code below in

4. Modify the code around line ~11 in order to reflect your homeserver and any additional frendservers that you want to highlight

5. Modify the code around line ~19 to reflect your homeserver

6. (Optional) If you’d like your homeserver buddies to have a different marker, uncomment the various sections around line ~27 through ~50 by removing the /* and */ bits

7. (Optional) Play around with different markers and colors!
