    It’s not perfect, but I think it strikes the right balance between seeing every post and blocking it. I’m busy this weekend but I’ll create an issue on KES’s GitHub repo and someone might beat me to it.

    That should actually be somewhat easy to do, I just created an issue for it on GitHub. I'm gonna be busy the next few days so I won't be able to work on it until later, but maybe someone else will beat me to it!

  • Honestly, it's a great question! While kbin is open source, making userscripts allows you to iterate on changes and get updates out very quickly. It's also much easier to start making userscripts than it is to contribute directly to the project, since you only really need to be familiar with JS, HTML, and CSS. To contribute to kbin, you need to be familiar with PHP and Twig, and set up your own instance for testing your changes.

    Plus, while kbin is open source, not every single change will be merged, and there will likely always be features "missing" from it. Userscripts also give you a ton of freedom and flexibility in how you use sites, so you could make crazy changes that aren't remotely possible to merge into it.

    Hope that answers your questions!

    kbin Enhancement Suite: a community-curated script manager that lets you customize your kbin experience

    A couple of weeks ago, @shazbot made this post about a project that they were working on. Since then, @shazbot, @ori, @minnieo and I have been hard at work, and we are excited to finally announce the official release of kbin Enhancement Suite (KES)!

    kbin has seen an explosion of user-made add-ons, but keeping track of them in one place, letting them share settings with one another, and toggling them on and off can be a challenge. KES is an expandable add-on manager that aims to rectify this by providing a unified interface and framework for script makers to collaborate, and letting you use them all in one place.

    KES brings together userscripts from the community, with a built-in settings menu that lets you tailor your experience to your liking. It also offers a flexible framework that empowers script authors to effortlessly integrate scripts into KES and set up custom input fields with no additional code.

    KES gives you a single window onto a collection of enhancements that is growing by the day. And those features can be added to by you!

    Features ==========

    We’ve focused on making customizing your kbin experience as easy as possible, whether you are on mobile or desktop. After we sort out the bug reports from this release, we plan on adding many more features! Here’s what we have so far:

    • Collapsible comments with nesting (by @artillect)
    • Use slash commands to add emoticons in text areas (by @minnieo)
    • Add syntax highlighting (with customizable themes) to code blocks (by @ori)
    • Show instance names next to non-local users and communities (by @artillect)
    • Add a link to message users on your instance next to their usernames (by @shazbot)
    • Hide upvote/downvote buttons and reputation (by @artillect)
    • Show more detailed timestamps on threads and comments (by @shazbot)
    • Hide thumbnails on threads (by @shazbot)
    • Add link to subscribed magazines to the navbar (by @shazbot)
    • Replace or hide the kbin logo in the navbar (by @shazbot)
    • Add “OP” label next to thread author’s username in comments (by @shazbot)
    • Convert navigation links on profile pages into a dropdown (by @shazbot)

    Each of these can be toggled in the settings menu, and some of them have additional configuration options, such as setting custom labels, colors, etc.

    New features are added on a rolling basis and the menu pages will update on the fly to reflect this new content.

    Installation ==========

    Click here to install KES, and follow your userscript manager’s prompt to complete the installation.

    If you don’t have a userscript management extension, you can install one of these, and then install KES using the link above:

    Once KES is successfully installed, access the settings menu by clicking on the wrench icon located at the top-right corner next to your username. From there, you can enable the features you like, and customize your browsing experience.

    More information ==========

    For bug reports and feature requests, visit our GitHub repository’s issues page. If you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to ask here or make a post on /m/enhancement!

    Developers ==========

    If you are a userscript author, we’d love it if you could try porting your userscripts into KES, or try writing completely new ones for it! @shazbot has made it easy to integrate your scripts: you just need to add your script’s information to manifest.json, make a few small modifications to your script, add it all to the GitHub repository, and you’re good to go!

    KES benefits:

    • Turnkey integration: a simple, declarative framework for dynamically adding features to the UI without touching the underlying code
    • Sharing of user-defined settings through script namespaces: access your script settings, and those from other scripts, through a well-defined object
    • Automatically responds to infinite scroll and page reload events
    • Attribution of script authors
    • Easily toggle scripts on/off

    Explore KES’s documentation here to get started. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out here, on /m/enhancement, or at our GitHub repository.

    Brawl Hub League Season 8 (With new bans)

    Greetings!

    The Brawl Hub's Season 8 begins in a couple days. Come check out the discord to sign up!

    https://discord.gg/brawl-hub-724663163194441769

    Based on feedback from both inside and outside the league changes have been made to the league's banlist. We hope that these new bans will cultivate a more creative, interesting, and fun format for people to compete in.

    Commander only bans:

    • Rusko, Clockmaker,
    • Teferi, Hero of Dominaria
    • Raffine, Scheming Seer

    In the 99 bans:

    • Wash Away

    The Season 7 tournament just wrapped up with Atraxa, Grand Unifier taking down Kethis, the Hidden Hand in the finals. With Rusko, Teferi, and Raffine out as commanders (these cards are still legal in the 99) we have our eye on Atraxa for a future ban if this phyrexian value bomb takes over the format. With the two best control decks out of the format this could time for aggressive decks like Adeline and Ragavan to shine, though. Or will there be a new commander from LoTR that emerges as a top contender?

    https://www.youtube.com/live/jAHrGx\_NXNw?feature=share

    Come join us and compete to be crowned the next historic brawl champion!

    Loving the new updates, but what all has changed?

    I tried looking around for a changelog but I couldn't find one anywhere (let me know if you know where it is, I know you can look at the commits/merged PRs on Codeberg but there's a lot to dig through).

    Here's some of the changes I've noticed:

    • Profile picture next to username in top right
    • Comments can now be sorted by "top"
    • Larger image preview when uploading an image
    • Magazine stats are now localized (yay!!!)
    • kbin logo instead of stormtrooper in the "Create your own instance" box
    • Vote colors are brighter on dark mode
    • New theme: Tokyo Night

    This is just what I've seen after using the site for a bit after the update, let me know if there's anything I've missed!

    Edit: I just noticed that you can filter posts by language now, that's huge!

    What font does the kbin logo use?

    I'm working on a bit of a project for kbin, and I want to make a logo for it that's inspired by kbin's, but I can't figure out what font the logo uses. Any help would be appreciated!

    edit: Axiforma Bold looks pretty similar, but not exactly the same, I think I might use that.

    Improved Collapsible Comments - Script that lets you collapse replies by clicking a line to the side of each comment

    Download it from greasyfork

    This userscript for kbin enhances the comment section adjusting the layout and adding a line to the left of each comment and its replies that lets you collapse them. The design is inspired by some custom subreddit stylesheets, and new reddit surprisingly enough (you know what they say about broken clocks).

    Personally, I think this is the best way to handle collapsing comments here's a screenshot.

    A video of it in action

    If you don't have a userscript manager extension installed, you can install Tampermonkey, and then open the greasyfork link above.

    Userscript for filtering posts by language on kbin
    greasyfork.org kbin Language filter

    Filters posts based on language indicated in badge

    I've created a userscript that hides posts based on the language set in the badge.

    You can change the whitelisted languages by adding them to the whitelist variable. For example, if you only want to see English and German posts, you can change the whitelist to let whitelist = ['en', 'OC', 'de']

    Let me know if there are any issues! I haven't tested it much, but it seems to be working well
