The biggest problem with kbin is honestly quite simple, but I don’t people is talking about is the fact that finding the magazines that I’m subscribed to is in Settings > Subscribed, on Reddit, it’s literally in the top bar, I don’t get why it’s buried in settings. Another thing is why is my home page full of posts from magazines that I’m not subscribed to and mostly not intrested in? I know I can do /sub to access the magazines feed, but why is hidden and why isn’t it just the default?
makes sense. another weird default is putting the comment box for a thread at the bottom of the thread, rather than the top lol. but a userstyle sheet fixes that. also notifications are turned off by default which is also weird.
lots of unfamiliar defaults lol.
I think that’s half based on forum layouts, and half to encourage you to read (and engage with) the conversation before throwing out an idea that might be the same as others’.
They are basically the same reason. Forums put the comment box at the bottom so people at least glance through the page before commenting, in hopes of reducing duplicate comments.
yup, entirely understandable. but once threads start getting very long you often never end up scrolling to the bottom.
again, there’s obviously reasons to the decisions, it’s just unfamiliar to use ex-reddit folk.
Where might I find and apply such a stylesheet, and is there also one for making threads collapsible?

Install tampermonkey or another user script extension
All the information @Shortcake is compiled in the magazine m/kbinStyles.
You’ll find additional goodies there, and if you come up with the modifications, you’re welcome to post them!
I went to click that link to kbinStyles and it didn’t seem to work, but did bring up other UI issues:
When I search for it, it doesn’t show up unless I first select magazines. Search should be global, unless your first pick a category to narrow your results.
Then there’s the case sensitivity issue mentioned elsewhere.
Finally, on a phone the subscribe button is off-screen. You have to swipe over to see it. So for a hot minute it seemed like there was no method to subscribe.
