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 which I unfortunately couldn’t get to work as intended. Your millage may vary.

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.

    This is how it looks to me, you can also see the bug with your “OP” tag being displayed multiple times for some reason as well. Tried refresh, tried re-enabling it, still the same. I’m on firefox so might be due to that, dunno.

      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:

      settings1
      settings2

      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.

      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.

        Oh yeah I like the other one much more, thanks!
        edit: Short update - I really wish I could show favorites instead of recently viewed as a separate group but other than that, the sidebar works and performs well!
