Thanks very much, that's what I thought.

FWIW, and somewhat OT: I can only read your posting on this fedia sub, if I go to your username and log in on lemmy.world, then go to the Lemmy posting.

Fedia fives me a 404 Not Found error if I try and open the topic directly. If this goes through, I have posted it via lemmy.

My own topic, which I've posted a few days ago, might be inaccessible on this fedia sub as well.

Thanks for the heads-up, I'll keep an eye on it. 👍

Thanks a lot for the reply; it works well for the main page of this sub, but as you said targeting the sidebar is more challenging.

 

Good day,

I've been trying to adjust some of the design of lemmy in the past few days, and it's been working well so far.

However, this forum has a few images in the header, a quite tacky anime-style background picture, and that silly Fx logo which is disgusting.

Not to mention the left ear of the poor thing is cut off.

I figured out I can use .banner-icon-header to manipulate those images in userContent.css , but how can I make changes only apply to this subforum?

I tried [href*="https://lemmy.world/c/firefoxcss/"] in some different ways, just don't know how to use it properly to make it work.

Or we could just lose those images. 😉

 

I for one would really appreciate a (light) theme, that does not use the color green - anywhere.

And not any red text either, even the non-red options still have some of that.

Everyone has different tastes, but forcing loud colors on users is never a good thing.

I've tried using a custom css, which works ok, but it's a lot of work and you guys keep changing the style.

Thank you for your consideration.

Thanks for the reply.

I have notifications disabled in the privacy and security settings of Firefox, see attached; that's why I only get the 'speech bubble' icon, not the dual icons in your screenshot.

The popup is as shown in the other attached image, asking to allow or block notifications. If I click block, the icon disappears - until I open another tab anywhere on lemmy.world, then the icon pops up again.

If I don't have notifications disabled, the usual dual icon appears, and I can block lemmy.world notifications for good - but then I have to do it for all other websites sending requests as well - which is what the setting is made to avoid.

I can reproduce the issue in a clean profile, without any of the few extensions and scripts I'm using in my main profile.

All I can think of is a possible compatibility issue with my outdated macOS, even though that seems quite odd.

I assume there is a difference between the two, but how could I possibly tell?

I'm a user not a developer, the best I can manage is mess with the Fx UI with a little js and css.

Just to be clear, as said above there is no other website that has triggered that notification icon in years. I forgot it existed; and it is concerning that lemmy is overriding a browser's security setup.

A fairly annoying issue I have with lemmy.world, is that I keep getting the push(?) notification icon in the URL bar.

It's the little icon on the right side of the URL text, at the top of the screenshot.

In my Firefox settings, website notifications are disabled, and not a single other website has ignored that setting in ages.

It also is a bit of a security concern - what other settings might lemmy override in the background?

I'm using an older version of macOS - 10.13 High Sierra, and the current Firefox 114.02 release version (which is supporting my OS).
