[Firefox Addon] Lemmy Modern UI Theme
I made a Firefox addon that replaces the styles on Lemmy instances with something more modern. It works with Lemmy 0.17 and 0.18. It supports both light and dark theme.

Tell your instance admin to give it a try: https://github.com/pkrasicki/lemmy-modern-ui-theme-addon/releases [https://github.com/pkrasicki/lemmy-modern-ui-theme-addon/releases]
Instructions unclear, I wrote a Firefox addon instead :D https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/lemmy-modern-ui-theme
But you should be able to take the script and easily turn it into a userscript: https://github.com/pkrasicki/lemmy-modern-ui-theme-addon
It works with both light and dark theme, but sometimes the detection fails for me and applies wrong styles. I hope those hacks will last for some time though so that we could have a modern UI. I would change more stuff, but some things are not possible.
I created a proposal with UI design changes. Feel free to post a comment with your feedback: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1183
More things would need to be changed to make the app more readable, but I didn't want to propose too many changes at once. So this is just for the main page with default theme.
