My thoughts exactly. Deadalic is an awesome studio with some of the best point-n-click games, an IMO underrated niche genre and some great other unique games. However, they are not the kind of studio for a games like Gollum. Every studio (and even every person working at that studio) has it’s own strengths and weaknesses. By utilizing that strengths and weaknesses correctly, you can make great games. It’s a shame they got a bad rep because they didn’t do that with this game.

Sounds good, I will check it out! Thanks for sharing!
I’ve been using yt-dpl + MPV + qutebrowser or ytfzf for a long time, but lately I’ve been using Freetube a lot on my desktop (which can also use MPV as an external player). Subscriptions are saved locally and can be exported in several formats. I occasionally export them, sync them over syncthing to my phone and import it on my yt apps on my phone. On my phone I mainly use Libretube, with NewPipe as a backup.
what a silly owl!
Check the thread again, I edited it. The other sidebar I mentioned, which previously didn’t work on my machine, has been fixed and I even prefer it over the already awesome Floating bar. It might work around your issue.
That fixed the issue, it’s working perfectly now! I really like the extra functionality of it!
I will edit the post and add it to the recommendations. Thank you very much for the quick response!
I just thought of a small improvement that you might want to take into consideration. It’s really not a necessity, just a small QoL improvement.
I noticed on a profile page that it selects a random icon for each placeholder. This means it will use different variants of Kibby for each comment, even when multiple of those comments are from the same user. I thought it would be less confusing if it assigns a random Kibby variant to a user upon loading the page, so it is consistent when reading a thread. It doesn’t matter if it changes the assigned variant to a different variant when you go to a different page, but having the consistency in a longer comment thread could be helpful.
I wasn’t expecting that the author would show up here, hi!
The problem I run into is that it won’t load the list of magazines. It just says Failed to load subscriptions with a spinning load-icon on top. Your sidebar looks really good on the screenshots, though!
Your comment made me re-enable your script again to investigate the issue a bit deeper. I opened up the console and it seems like the URL that is used to request the list is not valid:
Thank you for reaching out and looking into it. I really appreciate that!
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.
That’s exciting! Scripts like these are really awesome and are not only a great way for users to tinker with the site to their liking, they are also some sort of feedback and an idea box for you guys (I noticed you contribute to the code of Kbin). But although scripts can be awesome, it’s even better when they are not “needed” because the functionality is build right into the site itself. Not to say I dislike the current vanilla experience. It’s already very good!
Thank you for your contributions, you guys are awesome!
I didn’t even know Safari has extension support nowadays. Great to hear it all works without issue, it’s such an improvement!
I’m on Firefox as well, so I don’t think that is the issue. This is how it looks on my side Example.
This are the settings that I use:
About the double OP tag: I just noticed that bug too in another thread, but now it seems to be gone again. Maybe it’s a one time thing. It’s a bit buggy in these early stages anyway, hopefully it will get fixed.
You’re welcome! I really like the sidebar as well! It makes it way easier to see which Magazines I’m subscribed to and to quickly switch to them. Since I’ve installed that userscript I’ve been visiting separate Magazines a lot more, instead of just scrolling through my home page.
KUP also goes great with KES so far, they complement each other nicely. Best thing to me about KUP is the inline previews of articles. That was one of my favorite features of RES back on Reddit, so I’m excited to see an equivalent on Kbin :)
That’s weird, I don’t have that issue myself. The only small bug that I’ve noticed in the floating subs bar, is that it makes the rest of the website slightly less centered when opened. But that resolves itself when I close it again. You could try doing a full (cache) refresh of the webpage (Ctrl+F5). Sometimes that fixes those kind of issues.
E: You could of course also give the alternative sidebar a try. I really like that that sidebar groups magazines/communities with the same name together. However, it wouldn’t load my magazines on my system. It just kept spinning a loading icon. Maybe it does work for you, it’s worth a try!
Very cool! I will add it to the thread. Thanks for sharing :)
I think I will, thanks! I’ve also just posted a small list of Kbin userscripts that I like to spread awareness and added yours as well :)
This is great! I added it to my list of Kbin userscripts :)
Thank you for creating and sharing!
It might not be intentional, but you’re spreading misinformation that could be prevented with a quick search.
The (sole) developerbof Tildes specificlly stated that Tildes will have an API and that they don’t want to discourage apps. Their philosophy is just that the official way of visiting Tildes should be the same lightweight website as the desktop. A solution that works on every device. To me, this makes a lot of sense. It fits the philosophy of Tildes, results in less code to maintain and ensures the experience is the same on every device.
