I have developed CSS styles to provide multi-column streams for Diaspora, Mastodon, Hubzilla, and Tumblr. It's possible that the Hubzilla version will work on Friendica with little or no modification. Anyone want to try it?

G+ style Multi-Column Streams in pluspora, Mastodon, Hubzilla, and Tumblr
I've put together CSS styles which provide multi-column Streams in various social media platforms. This has a huge effect on browsing speed. To use them, you:
1) Download Stylus plugin (Chrome, Firefox or Opera): https://add0n.com/stylus.html
2) Install desired Multi-Column style from here: https://userstyles.org/users/773238
Enjoy!

Oh, I'm now working on a Client-Side Filter userscript to provide "Collections" and "Communities" on pluspora (diaspora). The basic idea is to add PERSONAL HASHTAGS and MODERATED HASHTAGS.
ReplyDeletePersonal hashtags are like "Collections" - only one user is allowed to post to that hashtag. Any errant posts are filtered out.
Moderated hashtags are like "Communities" - only members are allowed to post to that hashtag, and only moderators are allowed to flag posts for deletion. Any errant posts are filtered out.
This can't be done with pure CSS like multi-column streams, so I'm learning how to use Tampermonkey userscripts. I'm hoping to have something implemented by this weekend or next.
Unlike G+ Collections and Communities, it's possible to post to as many hashtags as you wish. That will prevent silo/spam effects (only post to one Collection/Community vs spamming a bunch of copies to all relevant Collections/Communities).
Is that possible for mewe.com? Thx. I meant three column stream.
ReplyDeleteTomáš Němeček The first time I tried, it seemed to complicated to tackle. Since then, though, I have learned a few more tricks and I did figure out a method. I'll be posting something for it soon.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, MeWe's UI consumes a lot of space with the left and right sidebars, so I'm limiting it to 2 column (like my Hubzilla style).
I may be able to figure out Facebook also, using this "display:grid" method...
Tomáš Němeček I had to fight MeWe a lot to get something to work. It's a closed garden Facebook wannabe, so it purposefully makes things difficult by randomizing element types and such.
ReplyDeleteSo, this works...for now. Until MeWe makes more changes.
Fundamentally, they want to make things more difficult for users who wish to scrape their own data. This helps force vendor lock-in. It's just one of those despicable practices that Facebook does, which MeWe copies.
In contrast, Tumblr was a lot easier. Even though Tumblr's another closed garden, they're not a Facebook wannabe. They correctly figured out that it would be better to keep things easier for the developers, than to worry about making it harder for users to get to their own data.
Anyway, here it is. It works...for now:
userstyles.org - Multi-Column MeWe Stream
Make sure to install Stylus plugin first, if you haven't already done so. The userstyles sight still points you to the older Stylish plugin. I've been told that the Stylish plugin has been compromised, while the Stylus plugin is secure.
Isaac Kuo It's working now. We will see. I hope this solution will be working for some time :-) Thanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteI might have to try this out
