Sure you might have a lower number of cars total, but you’ll also have way more cars on the road, making the traffic problem even worse (because you can now have more cars than people). I’m guessing we’ll be seeing legislation that disallows empty cars driving around in big cities.

I had never used Waterfox, but I installed it just now, to see why it doesn’t work. Latest Waterfox is apparently based on Firefox 102, which doesn’t support Manifest v3 extensions (and Lemmy Go is one of those). I tried to see if supporting v3 and v2 was feasible, but it’s just too many changes even for a relatively small extension like this one. The changes themselves aren’t too big a deal, but it would mean maintaining and testing two very different versions of the extension (which I already have to do for Firefox vs Chrome, but right now they are almost identical). I’d rather keep the project as simple as possible for now.

I expect Waterfox G6 (which is supposed to release in September) to support Manifest v3 extensions, so maybe we just need to wait a bit.

I’ve actually thought about it, but it sounds like too big of a project. I don’t think I’d have the time to maintain it for free. Besides, Lemmy being open source means we should probably focus on directly improving Lemmy vs doing it via addons (I made a tiny fix a few days ago, I can see myself contributing in a more soon).

It’s 50 communities per page. It gets every community from every instance linked by one of the instances in the list. So just linking some instance to lemmy.ml or lemmy.world will eventually make it show up in this database.

Ah no worries. That’s the kind of thing you can fix by just adjusting CSS. Learning a bit of CSS is really useful for that reason.

I had a quick look, and one easy way to do what you want is using an extension like Stylus, and then creating a new style with this CSS:

@-moz-document domain("lemmy.world") {
    #sidebarContainer {
        display: flex;
        flex-direction: column-reverse;
    }
}

Just keep in mind that there’s a good chance this will stop working if the Lemmy frontend updates.

Could you expand on that? What do you mean by communities on the main page? I want to provide different ways to sort the communities.

Also, feel free to open issues on GitHub with suggestions and bug reports.

This is where the data comes from: https://github.com/Raicuparta/lemmy-community-crawler There’s currently no way to add missing communities manually, but I’ll add it to the todo list. But of course if you link any instance to one of the instances that this database crawls, eventually it will show up in the list.

woops, lemme fix that
