Would it be feasible to have an "enhancement pack" website where less talented people (ie me) could get fixes like this. I remember doing stuff like this with Proxomitron in the good old days....

>Would it be feasible to have an "enhancement pack" website where less talented people (ie me) could get fixes like this. Sort of? At least if I'm understanding you properly. :) It used to be that userscripts.org was a thing. Now I think you need to use a mirror [0]. There is also a subreddit for them [1]. Stylish should have a similar site for themes - although not all userscripts will work properly with Stylish (styles may break functionality that relies on styles being a certain way). For a few sites, I think people have made "generators" for stylesheets to make it user-friendly to generate your own userstyle. I'm not aware of any offhand though. It would be nice to have a more "curated" or organized Userscripts site, since not all of them are site-specific. The two most popular "enhancement suites" are the Youtube Enhancement Suite and the Reddit Enhancement Suite, both of which do countless things and are extremely "heavyweight" in functionality/features. My personal "enhancement suites" are a lot smaller in scale and public usability. :) [0] https://userscripts-mirror.org/ https://userscripts-mirror.org/ [1] https://www.reddit.com/r/userscripts/ https://www.reddit.com/r/userscripts/

I pretty much taught myself CSS fixing fucked-up shit I didn't like on sites I was visiting, through Stylebot and (now) Stylish. Stylebot is slightly easier to get started with, but Stylish is a better and more powerful tool, also available for Firefox. I haven't got into JS yet. Otherwise, installing GS scripts or Stylish themes works.
