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.
what features do you miss?
Tagging users (for example "lemmy developer"), keeping scores of upvotes and downvotes, and marking comments as read and hiding them.
See the feature requests for lemmy i made for details.
I guess the one I miss the most is having a bar on the left of the posts that I can click, which will close the comments.
I really missed this too, until I discovered that with Sync, you can long press comments to close the chain. I don't really use social media at all on my computer anymore. Which I guess has been better for my mental health
Yeah, I use Voyager on my phone, and it's got the jump button to jump to the next parent comment. It was just muscle memory that I was trying to click on the left of the comment chain to close it like on old Reddit with RES.
That very well could exist with one of the userstyles or front ends.
kbin enhancement suite has it. But it's for kbin obvs. It's a user script I run with ViolentMonkey firefox extension. There are a ton of lemmy projects along similar lines. Have a look.
I keep trying to up/downvote with
aandz. Which when I first saw it I thought "that's such a stupid mapping I will never remember it". How many months later I am literally still doing it.
