browse (Old) Reddit with Lemmy style
don't know if this is the correct community to post this on, but is there a way to style Reddit (most likely old Reddit but it doesn't matter) with a similar style to Lemmy? there are a few small subreddits I still browse (because there is no Lemmy equivalent) and it would be cool if I could style it like the regular Lemmy style (if you need an example: lemmy.ml)
I know there are frontends for viewing Lemmy instances like Reddit, but I haven't heard of any way to do the reverse.
it could be through a stylesheet, an alternative frontend, even just a pointer on how you could style a website into a different style.
thanks!
You're viewing a single thread.
Not really, once Reddit closed off their API to all but the absolute highest of bidders, it broke a lot of functionality of a lot of smaller apps like this. You might still be able to find something to spruce up the CSS client side somewhere, but a lot of devs abandoned the ecosystem once Reddit, the company, made it clear in no uncertain terms that community support and 3rd party partnerships were unwelcome.
oh, I forgot about the API not being freely available; so an alternate frontend wouldn't be a proper solution?
going by the other comments, though, there are client-side options that can avoid API issues entirely by just re-styling the webpage. thanks for the info, though!
