Got the 'home instance' dialog this time. Briefly checked it out, some of the links seem to be now directed towards my home instance, but there are no icons beside any link to show the original link as indicated in the description above.

Edit: Noticed the following error in the console:

Source map error: Error: URL constructor: tippy-bundle.umd.min.js.map is not a valid URL. Resource URL: user-script:http%3A//azzurite.tv//Lemmy%20-%20Rewrite%20Links%20to%20Home%20Instance Source Map URL: tippy-bundle.umd.min.js.map

Greasemonkey

Yes. The following error appears:

Script error in [Greasemonkey script http://azzurite.tv//Lemmy - Rewrite Links to Home Instance; version 1.0.0]: ReferenceError: GM_getValue is not defined

I installed it on Firefox with Greasemonkey. I don't get the dialog asking if I want to set my instance to my home instance, and I have no button in my settings. So, at the moment, the script appears to be inoperative.

Edit: Tried a few more things. I visited several other instances, other than my home instance of lemmy.ca, and still don't get any dialog about setting an instance to my home instance. Greasemonkey shows the script as enabled, but that's it. I'm running Firefox 114.0.2 on Arch Linux.

Edit2: Attempted to post an issue at the referenced Gitlab page, but this page does not exist, and a search for this project was a dead end. I have disabled the script until/unless the authors provide more information as to what is going on.

Edit3: Found the Gitlab project. The provided URL on the Greasyfork page is incorrect. It should be https://gitlab.com/foundry-azzurite/lemmy-rewrite-links

I will leave an issue.

I see this has been added in 0.5. That's awesome!

That's awful, but perhaps better than stuck for hours or days inside of a dead, dark, cold submarine at the bottom of the ocean as the oxygen slowly runs out.

Yes. In the Stylus preferences page you can turn the various user styles you've installed on and off. And you may have to add the URL for your instance to it if it's not there already.

Oh, those sticky keyboards.....

I think I'll take a look and give this a try, thanks.

Is this the same as this firefox extension?

Somebody liked the Motörhead rock band, maybe (Lead vocalist's name was Lemmy)?

Today, a bunch of new instances appeared in the top of the user count list. It appears that these instances are all being bombarded by bot sign-ups.

Yup, I noticed this as well.

Hopefully the mods of the instances will notice this and remove these accounts quickly! Despite this, I think the mods of all instances, and of all communities, had better brace themselves for incoming spam and hate speech.
