If you are looking for assistance in trying to interact with pages found on instances other than the one on which you have an account, here is what I believe is available so far.

you can see the same information as a table here.

note: this information will certainly become out of date in the near future. I advise you to conduct a fresh search for up to date information

Update July 3, 2023: I fixed the links hopefully. While I was doing that, I included links to chrome store where developer provided them. But I didn't search the chrome store itself.

I also made a thread for some kbin userscripts/extensions to make things a bit easier. see here.

notably I highly suggest kbin enhancement script which adds a lot of usability and quality of life features.

Hi I installed via greasemonkey and it took me a while of switching on/off to discern a ny difference.

All I can see is that for thread pages, top level comments, at the bottom, there is a link toggle replies (x) (x = # of replies) which hides comments below.

I disabled any other plugin/userstyle/userscript that might be acting on lemmy/kbin.

[–] Otome-chan@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you check the sidebar settings you can see a list of stuff that you can toggle with kbin enhancement script. Things such as showing the host instance for a user/magazine, moving the comment box to the top of comments, letting you collapse comment threads, showing the OP in a thread, etc. it does a lot of the things I felt kbin was lacking.

[–] density@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Aha! I see now. I thought I looked there before but missed the difference. Thanks!

[–] wrath-sedan@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Great list, thanks for sharing!

The kbin link is dead.
here's the current url for the addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kbin-link/

Not relevant to this thread, but for those interested, it's also available for Chromium browsers here.

[–] density@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

thanks! actually all the links were broken :) I got a little carried away with regex tidying it up I think. Should all be fixed
