Comments and Reviews

Comment summary: Stylus is praised for being lighter and more transparent compared to Stylish, with no tracking and full functionality in creating and saving styles. Users appreciate its compatibility with the latest Firefox builds and the ability to import styles seamlessly. While not flawless, it's considered the best userstyle manager available. It offers open-source benefits and avoids the unnecessary analytics seen in the original Stylish extension.

Stylus and similar add-ons can be used as simple test automation or workflow automation to hide something without any JS.

I don't know how to modify pages myself, but I'm so grateful for people who have created dark modes for sites that don't have one!

They have limitation with just one author in @author. This can easily can cause problems for everyone. I told devs but got no exact date when this will be fixed.

Excellent! using the sqlite extractor I was able to import my 100 style directly in to Stylus. It was Very Nice to use a version of stylish before it became a snowflake mess. Thanks.

it works with old styles (pre-57) and new version of Firefox, 96.0.3 (64-bit)

It's like Stylish, but it doesn't spy on you.
