That makes a lot of sense. The culture on there is more focused on text based communication which would probably help keep out advertisers since pictures and videos are so heavily relied upon for consumerism. I will see if there are any scripts I can run to make the site more pleasing to my eyes.

On scripts/css, there actually are several discussions about solutions that some site users have developed! I don't have any of them bookmarked but I'd imagine they're findable through tags or via the search function, plus they tend to resurface every few days.

On that note, one interesting thing about Tildes is that threads tend to bump to the top forum style instead of being algorithm-controlled (with a few nuances/caveats). It's just part of the site loop. Additionally, it's run entirely as a non profit, private entity funded by donations. I'd highly recommend reading through the philosophy section in the docs to get a better idea of why the site is the way it is.

It is invite-only though. If you don't have an account already, feel free to DM me for one if you're interested, I've got a few left.
