Can I make lemmy not have massive side gutters? (self.lemmyworld)

On desktop my lemmy is formatted like it's a mobile site with like 70% of the space left as gutters left and right of the feed... can I make them not like this and look more like old reddit?

Yes. There's a Greasemonkey script to do that at https://sh.itjust.works/post/53395

Brilliant. I love it. I wish it wasn't necessary to use a Greasemonkey script to accomplish it, but this solves my #1 gripe with Lemmy.

Can confirm this works great. Fixes so much wasted space for desktop users.

Sweet, more things I've never heard of!

That said, glancing through how GM works is actually pretty slick, I may use more of these scripts! Thanks again!

edit: eh, the pop-in is definitely not ideal... but I guess it be wat it be.

This is great! I’m eagerly watching what people are doing with the ui.

I'm using that which makes Lemmy look so much better.

I changed the main container width to 65%, though because I felt like it was too narrow.

.container-lg {
    max-width: 65%;
}

yes, im cross posting themes to the meta community on my instance. some are on git, some are just being linked in threads.

Bookmarking this thread and trying out the scripts when I have access to my desktop tomorrow. Although obviously a native solution is ideal, I understand the devs are hard at work on it.

so far I'm using the greasemonkey solution and it's mostly good. the pop-in of the style changes are a bit annoying but it's a minor issue.
