Rated 3 out of 5
by David McRitchie, 8 years agoThe complaint is not really about Stylish, it is about Firefox, but Stylish is no good to me beyond FF 56.0.2 because all of the styles I use are not themes, and only themes can be done in Stylish now because Firefox is crap beginning with FF 57. If Firefox is going to look like Chrome, act like Chrome, use Chrome as a goal-- you might as well not be using Firefox.
I have put Stylish back to pre version 3.0, and Firefox, extensions including Stylish styles are no longer allowed to update themselves. I guess in 3 months I will switch to Chrome I've had to use it all too many times up to now. Stylish and extension were what kept Firefox usable and enjoyable (FF not so enjoyable starting around 3.0 when they started to lose sight of their users).
I wish I could tell you to look at the styles I wrote and the others I also use but the pictures are incomplete not showing before and after and are distorted and cropped.
* As I understand it Firefox 57 will not allow or will only allow for a while changes to Firefox structure interface, no more changes to toolbars, scrollers, scroll thumbs to make them visible, unhiding hidden or self hiding scroll bars, eliminating wasted space on toolbars making them more readable in 1/4 the space. Almost every extension that I have left is marked legacy and has to do with toolbars. Loss of bookmark functionality. The only extensions that will remain appear to be Adblock Plus and Stylish themes.
* More on the Firefox 57 Fiasco -- https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2017/02/16/the-road-to-firefox-57-compatibility-milestones/
* If Firefox is is just going to remove features not available in other browsers and play catch-up to Chrome, as if that is desirable, then why continue to use Firefox at all. Dumbing down Firefox to Google Chrome's level is going to eliminate the remaining Firefox users who have persevered through all of Mozilla's shenanigans.
* If you try to read up about an extension now they've f*ck*d that up as well. Most important items: version, size, releases it works with, stars, description, developer's comments, user comments & developer comments related to a user comment.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Сырное, 3 days agoF Y! The style site does not work - the developer has built in protection against browsers. Not a single browser could access his site, although the protection frame was loaded. I don’t have protections enabled - why doesn’t it work?
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17488740, 20 days agoSpyware that steals your all browser history. Uninstall it immediately. Use more popular, lightweight, feature-rich and community-driven Stylus instead.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Sean Nava, 3 months agoThis so-called addon is nothing but Spyware (even for being here on Firefox its web doesn't load on Firefox but it does on Chrome). Stylus is much better and safe
- Rated 1 out of 5by nova_37, 5 months agoVery limited selection of themes as the website is broken.
...the hello kitty youtube theme looked okay, but I wanted one with mroe pink, so I tried to search. It said "bad gateway". I will not return. - Rated 1 out of 5by K., 5 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Raven9000, a year agoConsider uninstalling the malicious Stylish extension. In 2016, with no input from the userbase, through some guy, pretending to be an independent developer, it basically was sold to a shady web analytics company, Similarweb. Since then, it is actively sharing your entire non-anonymized browsing history demo with them, assuming you ever clicked on one of the flashy "Agree" buttons. It initially did this without even asking for consent, and was banned from extension stores afterwards. Currently, it still breaks store policies, yet is not banned for unknown reasons. A safe alternative is Stylus.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Marty, a year agoThis extension is a complete hoax. The homepage userstyles.org is not accessible with the Firefox browser. On all Chrome-based sites, userstyles.org is accessible without any problems. It's a shame how Firefox users are being fooled here.
