# Tildes ReExtended

> An updated and reimagined recreation of [Crius' original Tildes Extended](https://github.com/theCrius/tildes-extended) web extension.

## Differences

### Removed Functionality

Large parts of the original Tildes Extended have been removed for various reasons:

* "Link In New Tab": this functionality now exists natively and can be configured [in your settings](https://tildes.net/settings).
* "Markdown Preview": this too exists natively (although not a "live" preview). Another reason this isn't included is due to Tildes using a customized flavor of Markdown that is difficult to replicate accurately enough with what's available and keep up to date.
* "Sticky Header": with the dedicated "Back To Top" button now I wasn't sure if there was a need for it, so it's left out.
* "Custom Styles": this feature introduced many issues in Tildes Extended that while better and dedicated extensions exist such as [Stylus](https://add0n.com/stylus.html) that can reliably handle custom styles instead.

### Extended Functionality

Some functionality has also been extended more:

* [x] The "Back To Top" button has been separated out into its own feature. It used to be apart of the "Jump To New Comments" one.
* [ ] The "Random Tildes Logo" feature now picks from theme-appropriate logos instead of a regular tilde character. [*WIP](https://gitlab.com/tildes-community/tildes-reextended/issues/7)
* [x] The "Jump To New Comment" button now uncollapses comments if the new one is collapsed or is inside a collapsed one.

#### User Labels

* [x] Multiple labels per person.
* [x] Specify priority of labels.
* [x] A dropdown with theme-appropriate colors for easy access.
* [x] Able to pick any color you want.
* [ ] Dedicated interface to add, edit, and remove labels. [*WIP](https://gitlab.com/tildes-community/tildes-reextended/issues/1)

### New Functionality

And various new features have been added such as:

* [ ] Hide (and unhide) topics from the topic listing. [*WIP](https://gitlab.com/tildes-community/tildes-reextended/issues/3)
* [x] Hide all vote counts. Or all but your own.
* [ ] Anonymize usernames while adding a unique color to usernames for easy recognition. [*WIP](https://gitlab.com/tildes-community/tildes-reextended/issues/5)
* [ ] Assign unique colors to people's usernames. [*WIP](https://gitlab.com/tildes-community/tildes-reextended/issues/6)
* [x] Export and import your settings.
