Right now, the only method I found is to click on the expando, then right click on the image and open it in a new tab. Is there a way to make it so I can just click it once? I can’t imagine any possible scenario where I’d want to see a large but not full size image.
I’m using the browser on my computer if that’s relevant.
Edit: I got it to work using the Stylus addon and:
.img-expanded:not(.banner, .avatar-overlay) {
max-height: unset;
max-width: 100vw;
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%);
outline: auto;
outline-color: black;
z-index: 1;
}
I also made it outline any expandos with:
/*Note: Links are exactly the same except without bg-transparent, so using not(bg-transparent) instead will outline the links instead of the expandos. Also, they're outlined orange unless you change it, so you could take that off, give them all outlines, and you can tell which they are based on the color.*/
.thumbnail.rounded.overflow-hidden.d-inline-block.position-relative.p-0.border-0.bg-transparent {
outline: auto;
}
It’s not just a Lemmy thing. Imgur has the same problem too, and the only reason it exists is for images.
Anyway, I don’t think this fix is ideal, but I’m going to head to a CSS community to get it working properly.
I improved the fix and edited the post to show it. Now it doesn’t mess with the sidebar and leaves the margin on the left for everything but images. And I added something to outline expandos. I’m tired of accidentally opening links. I really wish they weren’t opened the same way, but that’s not something i can fix with CSS.
