INSTALLATION

Unless otherwise noted, each link below points to the userscript's homepage on GreasyFork.

Where possible, always install (or reinstall) these userscripts from GreasyFork, as this repo may contain development versions of these scripts that aren't ready for release and which may not even compile. In addition, the file/directory names here are subject to change, whereas the URLs on GreasyFork will always remain stable.

Compatibility

All of these scripts work in and are tested on Violentmonkey, which is open source, cross browser, actively maintained, and highly recommended. If for some reason you can't use it — or don't want to — the following options are available:

• Greasemonkey¹
• Tampermonkey (closed source)

<a name="fn1">^<b>1</b></a> The Greasemonkey 4 API is not currently supported. Some scripts work, but most haven't been tested. <br />
