Right now I'm using the Lemmy Modern UI extension from the Firefox WebStore. What are some others I should get as well?

They both do try to do roughly the same thing. If you go to another Mastodon website and try to follow, reply, etc. it will redirect you to do that on your mastodon instance.

There is kbin-link that reformats links to match your home instance, works for kbin or lemmy
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kbin-link/

for kbin specific stuff kbinstyles magazine has a lot of good stuff. Especially like kbin enhancement script

I use a custom script to open all post and external links on the front page in a new tab. Based on a script I found online but customised to beehaw specifically.

// ==UserScript==
// @name         beehaw - Open links in new tab
// @description  Open links in new tab. Ctrl-click or Middle-click loads it in background
// @match      http*://*beehaw.org/home*
// @match      http*://*beehaw.org
// @version      0.0.1
// @grant        GM_openInTab
// @run-at       document-start
// ==/UserScript==

var suppressing, clickedElement;

window.addEventListener('mousedown', function (e) {
  clickedElement = e.target;
}, true);

window.addEventListener('mouseup', function (e) {
  if (e.button > 1 || e.altKey || e.target != clickedElement) {
    return;
  }
  var link = e.target.closest('a');

  if (!link || !link.href) {
      return;
  }

  if (link.getAttributeNode('aria-label') && link.getAttributeNode('aria-label').value == 'Expand here') {
      return;
  }

  if (link.href.startsWith('https://beehaw.org') && !link.href.startsWith('https://beehaw.org/post/')) {
    return;
  }

  GM_openInTab(link.href, {
    active: !e.button && !e.ctrlKey,
    setParent: true,
    insert: true,
  });
  suppressing = true;
  setTimeout(function () {
    window.dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent('mouseup', {bubbles: true}));
  });
  prevent(e);
}, true);

window.addEventListener('click', prevent, true);
window.addEventListener('auxclick', prevent, true);

function prevent(e) {
  if (!suppressing) {
    return;
  }
  e.preventDefault();
  e.stopPropagation();
  e.stopImmediatePropagation();
  setTimeout(function () {
    suppressing = false;
  }, 100);
}

I really appreciated this script. I did some modifications so it works on any Lemmy instance and updated it for GM 4.0+

I created a GreasyFork install here, you're the OG author to me, but if you find who you took it from initially let me know and I'll add them to the authorship.

Thanks again!

Thank you. This really should be a user profile option. Here's hoping.
