  • Things though like detergent, toilet paper, etc, I really don’t know who sells them other than big box stores.

    I buy some of that stuff locally from a well-known & supposedly-“eco-friendly” brand. Just now I checked their website to see if they sell direct-to-consumer. Some do but this brand doesn’t. So I took a look at their “Where to buy” list. Most of the listed online sellers were the obvious big-box or affiliated. But there was one apparently independent and environmentally-focused alternative retailer listed, with reasonable retail and shipping prices. I’m reading up now (Wikipedia and reviews) to decide whether that retailer will interest me or not.

    So, my suggestion is to visit the websites of some brands that you like. Perhaps some may sell direct; and if not, check their “Where to buy” listings to see if any interesting options might be found there.










  • I haven’t yet delved into the kbinStyles offerings.

    On my Windows laptop, I’m using the Stylus extension with Firefox or Chrome, to apply quick-and-dirty sloppy CSS like:

      article, article * {
        margin: 0 !important;
        padding: 0 !important;
      }
      article {
        border-top: 1px dotted gray !important;
      }
    
    

    Someone on kbinStyles should have something MUCH better. I haven’t yet tried anything from there, but I see titles like: “…replicate old reddit on kbin”. Look into things like that. — https://kbin.social/m/kbinStyles

    Note: I also select the Compact view (in the view menu which is found via one of the buttons in the magazine header).
