Rediggit for Lemmy has been renamed to Lemonberry...now with dark mode
A new version of my Rediggit theme for Lemmy has dropped, and with it comes a name change...
Rediggit is now Lemonberry, to better reflect the separation from Reddit.
I've also added a much-requested dark mode, adapted from Lemmy's default darkly theme. Those familiar with the Reddit Enhancement Suite's dark mode should find this pretty comfortable.
The latest version of Lemonberry is optimized for Lemmy v0.18.1 only and is available on GitHub and UserStyles. I will likely keep the optimizations in sync with only the larger instances as Lemmy development is changing rapidly, and it's proving difficult to maintain compatibility with older versions.
You can also find older versions of the theme, and additional screenshots, at the GitHub repo.
If you have no idea what any of this means, Lemonberry is a flexible, full-width light and dark theme for Lemmy. It is just one of many user-made themes for this community. These themes can be installed and enabled with the use of a CSS injector browser add-on, such as Stylus (Firefox, Chrome). UserStyles.world is a good place to start exploring the available themes.
Thanks! I'm a bit rusty, but it's been fun to design colourschemes again.
There are a lot of contextual elements in the Lemmy-ui that only appear in certain circumstances, so it's been a real challenge to trigger these one-offs and test any changes. You might still encounter a few weird colours here and there until I track them all down and find a suitable replacement (only to have them change on the next lemmy release lol).
I think that would be best for now. As much as love the idea of folks being to use it without a browser add-on, it would just require constant upkeep from you site admins to push the daily changes.
I'll see if the Lemmy devs are open to user-submitted themes when things settle a bit, or I could keep a version specifically written for Lemmy instances in my repo, and then site admins could pull it whenever updated.
Unfortunately, no. The lemmy.ca site admins did offer my previous theme as a native option in your profile settings, however the stylesheets must be updated so frequently due to Lemmy's early state of development that it was becoming impractical to do this reliably.
