On Social Media

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? Originally shared by Isaac Kuo 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! #diaspora #mastodon #hubzilla #tumblr #pluspora #tips #tip (Putting them all here in one convenient place.)

New simplified instructions and new enhancements (such as multi-column comments) Originally shared by Isaac Kuo Multi-column Stream and Comments in Diaspora https://userstyles.org/styles/168773/3-column-diaspora Multi-column stream and comments boost browsing speed and look better on wide screens. This plugin/style gives you a multi-column stream, albeit the tiling is a bit crude.

Originally shared by Isaac Kuo Multi-column Stream in diaspora! One thing I like about Google+ is the multi-column stream view. It means I can browse articles more quickly than with a single column view, with less scrolling effort. Conversely, it means my followers can browse articles more quickly, so more people see my posts. It's great! More engagement, more enjoyment, less time spent. Diaspora has many features I like, being similar to early G+. But it has just a single column stream view...until now! It turns out that adding a small bit of CSS code gives a crude multi-column stream view. It's not neat Masonry tiling, with weird gaps. But it's good enough for me. The steps to do this are: 1) Use Chrome or Chromium 2) Install the Stylus plugin (search for "stylus chrome") 3) Go to pluspora.com (or whatever diaspora pod you're on) 4) Click on the “S” plugin icon in the upper right; select Write Style for pluspora.com 5) Paste the code: ``` #main-stream .stre...

A question which frequently comes up over at MeWe is whether it's possible on the app to see a feed of all new posts in all the groups we're following. The answer is actually yes - but it's done a little differently from what you think: 1. Go to the groups tab in the app and open any group from the top section called "Group alerts". This will show you only the new posts in that particular group. Read what you want to read of the new posts from that group. 2. Now scroll left. See? You're now in the next group with new posts. #tip
