LQ Stylish Themes

szboardstretcher · 12-13-2016, 10:47 AM

Friend of mine on LQ asked if LQ was ever going to change its theme. I said probably not, but there is a way to theme it yourself.

There is a plugin called Stylish for firefox that themes sites, and there are a handful of LQ styles available. Just wanted to point this out for anyone that needs a "late night" version of LQ.

It has themes for other things as well. I use the reddit, LQ and hackernews themes with success.

I believe that Jeremy has said you can get an idea of the upcoming theme of LQ at Android Questions. I imagine that re-theming a site as large and complex and with so many moving parts as LQ, while also keeping it running smoothly, is one heck of a task.

Personally, I like the current theme better than that one, but I don't come here for the theme--I come here for the content and the community. If Jeremy wants to change the theme, I say to him what I used to say to BBS sysops in olden days, when I was a young 'un: "It's your site. The final decision is up to you."

I change the theme at night.
