for everybody else who is mildly annoyed by this, i’ve written a small userstyle to revert it on desktop so long as you have stylus installed. the whole “show x replies” thing is also bugging me for docs (not just the wiki) but for now you can get the author back like this
/* ==UserStyle==
@name Meta Enable Docs Author
@namespace github.com/openstyles/stylus
@version 1.0.0
@description Fixes simple mode author & category hiding for docs categories on Discourse meta
@author pyxfluff
==/UserStyle== */
@-moz-document domain("meta.discourse.org") {
.post__topic-map.topic-map.--op {
display: flex !important
}
.topic-post[data-post-number="1"] {
.topic-avatar {
display: block !important;
}
.topic-meta-data {
.names {
display: block !important
}
.like,
.reply {
display: block !important
}
}
}
.topic-list.doc-simple-mode .link-bottom-line .badge-category__wrapper,
.topic-list.doc-simple-mode .topic-excerpt {
display: inline-flex !important
}
}
sorry for the sloppy code, usercss is really limited and does not have nesting to my knowledge yes it does![]()
