userscript called "old.reddit" found here: https://github.com/soundjester/lemmy_monkey

(recently updated for Lemmy v0.18)

This is primarily for desktop clients. At the moment, formatting get a little crazy below 1280 px wide. There are ways to address this, but I have not at this time.
script will be updated as suggested
- significant changes have been made to address alignment, spacing, and other format issues. v1.1 will be where I stop for a while.
there are two script versions: old.reddit and old.reddit.compact. The primary difference is that the "compact" version greatly reduces thumbnail size and padding space.
notice: current script unblurs NSFW

(linked thumbnail shows old.reddit.compact version of the script)

Awesome work! Would it be possible to add the "expand image/video/text" button from RES? Preferably with the option to increase/decrease the size of images by dragging with the mouse.

I'm talking about these: https://imgur.com/a/1yH5FTN

That would perfect my experience!

Here's a userscript that auto-expands images: https://sh.itjust.works/post/164735 it's nice because it keeps the scripts a little more single-purpose so that if one malfunctions, the other stays working. Incorporating all of the things would be perfect for a plug-in, which is being discussed.
