I’ve been trying out several userscripts for Kbin recently, which have made the website way more enjoyable than it already was. I wanted to share them with my fellow Kbin users.

To use these scripts, you’ll need an userscript manager. I use Greasemonkey on my PC on Firefox myself, and Tampermonkey on my phone. You can find recommendations for your browser on the Greasy Fork home page.

These are the scripts that I’ve been using:

There are many more interesting scripts on Greasy Fork, like this alternative sidebar.

After installing scripts you like, I recommend checking the settings of the scripts and change the settings to whatever you prefer. The settings can often both be found under the little cog icon on the right side of the page, just like the official Kbin settings.

Feel free to share you favorite userscripts or add-ons and enjoy!

E: @minnieo, the creator of Kbin Kibby Avatars, just shared this very nice userstyle for the side bar to make it look even better.

E2: The author of both Kbin Usability Pack and the Kbin Subscription Panel, @Perry, just fixed the issue I was having with the “alternative sidebar”. It is working as intended now and it has some very nice extra functionality and settings. It also works perfectly on mobile. I would recommend trying out both and see which one you like most.

    I agree. One of the things that I really love about open source projects that gain popularity like this, is that the community can get really involved with the process of development and it can allow the project to evolve noticeably fast. It’s quite the opposite of a large corporation where all small decisions are made by having a lot of meetings, with a lot of people that are only looking for the highest profit margin. I’m looking forward to see what the future of Kbin might hold.
