I was just thinking I’d like to make some UI tweaks - I like dark themes but the dark theme is a little hard to parse for me here.
Of course it’s always possible to go the user stylesheets route, with something like Tampermonkey or Stylish. But, is there an established best practice already? Do most instances have the same UI, and, if not, how are the differences implemented?
I also think there’s probably room for some more niche stuff like RES used to do, but considering Lemmy is open source it might make sense to do some of that against the official repo rather than as another layer on top. Then again that would make adoption less convenient and under user control.
That seems to me to be one of the big issues - it looks like the available themes are down to the discretion of the instance admin. I dunno if allowing an arbitrary URL for a theme would be too much of a security hole, but it seems like that would quickly make each user able to use any theme they want.
