I always used old.reddit.com with RES on my desktop. I’ve started using old.lemmy.world now, and I love the familiarity, but I realize how much I miss RES. I wish there was something for the old.lemmy.world that offered the same enhancements.

    The reason reddit enhancement suite existed was because the developers couldn’t fix reddit. Lemmy is open source, the frontends are open source. You and anyone else who wants to can fix it.

    There is no need for an extension.

      Well, anyone else, but not me. I know next to nothing - no wait, I know actual nothing - about coding.

      It still has advantages, you don’t have to depend on some server and trust it will keep your data, you can build features on top of a certain front end and don’t have to re-implement functionality and maybe even support multiple front ends.

      There shouldn’t be, but that doesn’t mean it cannot be enhanced. Hopefully a popular feature from an extension can become integrated into official web clients.

      I just want locally stored user tagging like RES had which isn’t something you’d want the site to manage.
