A Tampermonkey userscript that allows you to view 4chan threads and the catalog with a Reddit-style interface.
- Reddit-style Layout: View threads with a familiar nested comment structure (though 4chan is flat/linear, this script attempts to thread replies).
- Sidebar: Adds a Reddit-style sidebar to boards.
- Index/Catalog View: distinct styles for the board index versus thread view.
- Text Size Control: Adjustable text size (S/M/L).
- Install the Tampermonkey browser extension.
- Click the link above. Tampermonkey will automatically detect the userscript and ask if you want to install it.
- Click "Install".
- Visit any 4chan board (e.g.,
boards.4chan.org/g/) to see it in action.
The script is configured to automatically check for updates. If you installed it via the link above, Tampermonkey will periodically check for new versions and update it for you.
The project structure is organized as follows:
.
├── reddit-chan.user.js # The main userscript source code
├── tests/
│ └── mocks/ # HTML files for offline testing/debugging
│ ├── mock_4chan.html
│ └── mock_4chan_index.html
└── README.md
You can simpler open the mock HTML files in tests/mocks/ with your browser to test the UI changes without needing to visit the live site or rely on the userscript injection for basic CSS/JS development.
