# Reddit Tweaks Firefox Extension
|
|
|
|
> **Note:** This project was built with the aid of [Cursor](https://cursor.com) and Claude.

This is a personal project, kept public for reference only. It will never be published to AMO (addons.mozilla.org). If you use it, expect to customize things to your own taste — it's opinionated by design.
|
|
|
|
## What it does
|
|
|
|
A Firefox extension that reskins [old.reddit.com](https://old.reddit.com) with a handful of visual tweaks:
|
|
|
|
- **Badge layout** — replaces the default subreddit link and comment count with styled badges
|
|
- **Card layout** — wraps posts in rounded cards with configurable density, spacing, and background style
|
|
- **Font override** — swaps in Reddit Sans (and Reddit Mono for code blocks) site-wide
|
|
- **Color customization** — per-subreddit badge colors via an inline HSV picker
|
|
- **Theming** — separate light/dark palettes with automatic RES night-mode detection
|
|
