Speaking of which, user scripts. So useful at un-enshittifying the web. Or just personalizing it to scratch those little design itches that annoy you.

any good ones you can recommend?

Or eg. for BandCamp I wrote a script that hides the play progress bar so that I can actually focus on the music instead of how many seconds of music there are left.
