# lemmy_monkey

A *monkey script to restyle Lemmy to a more old.reddit look

This script should work with Grease/Tamper/Violent (etc.) monkey userscript managers.

This script is (or should be) theme agnostic.  It has been tested with darkly, darkly-red, litely, and litely-red.

## Script Options

At the top of the script are two variables that are easily customized: 

- Adjust **thumbnail sizes** to your preference.

  - The current script defaults to a compact (small) thumbnail size of 70 x 70px.

- Adjust the **comment reading width** to your preference

  - The current script defaults to a reading width of 940px.

## Installation

SPECIAL NOTE: If your instance in on an 0.18.1 RC version, check the branch for a script that will work for you.

### Option A - Greasyfork

1. Compact version (old.reddit.compact.user.js) - https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469093-compact-lemmy-to-old-reddit-re-format-observer

 - This version also accommodates larger thumbnail sizes for those that desire a more picture-oriented user experience

 - Font sizes, spacing, and alignment will adjust based on the user-indicated thumbnail size

### Option B - Direct from github

1. Click the userscript from the shared code

2. Click the "Raw" button at on the top right of the script header area

3. Proceed according to the instructions for your userscript manager
