Minimalizes the room list by removing rooms' logos and activity snippets, also makes the snippets behave like tooltips. - LouCypher

I'm using this and it's uber-cool. ♥ it! - AJ Batac
and no one gives me credits : ) - LouCypher
@Lou great work. I tweaked it a little bit to work with the new beta desing http://hoffmann.tumblr.com/pos... - Peter Hoffmann
Silly me. I've updated it on my Stylish but forgot to update it on userstyles.org. It's updated now, thanks Peter - LouCypher
I'm using better FF for this, but does it work with the beta yet? - Duncan Riley
Yes. It works with beta and current FF - LouCypher

Nice! Is there a Open in Browser addon for FF 2.0? - Hao Chen
Still no workaround for Opera? : ( - Leia
Nice, but a little too long winded - Kol Tregaskes
It isn't compatible with FF3.0.1. - Russellreno
Thanks for the hack, working good ;) - "Czar" DJ Peterman

LOL I forgot to post it here. - LouCypher
Go to http://friendfeed.com/angelina... to test the userstyle - LouCypher
Nice idea. Do you have that image in PNG transparent (for dark theme users like myself?) - "Czar" DJ Peterman
*New PNG transparent* --> http://img353.imageshack.us/im... - LouCypher
Thanks Lou. What a neat hack... ;-) - "Czar" DJ Peterman
You can of course edit the code and change the image to something else. I'm too Haruhi minded. - LouCypher
I updated the image. The previous one looked ugly on error403 page (http://friendfeed.com/static/) PNG transparent: http://img353.imageshack.us/im... - LouCypher

Changes friends tab URL to friendfeed.com/?num=100 to maximize entries per page. Compliments Friendfeed 100 http://userscripts.org/scripts... - Hao Chen
Why not add it to all tabs? All links in tabs can be added with "?num=100" including "friend settings" tab - LouCypher
Good point :) - Hao Chen
Not stupid at all. Yup, you hafta be using Firefox. Download the Greasemonkey Add-on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-... Then when you click Install on any scripts on userscripts.org it will automatically be installed and run (reload page). - Hao Chen
Yah i figured it out awhile ago. The reason i asked was because prior to this i had grease monkey scripts installed and what it would do is download the .js file without actually applying it, had no idea why; thanks though Hao - Gordon Swaby
Cool! Works on Opera as well (by removing the "unsafeWindow.") - Leia
Leia, great! Thanks for the fix. No need for the unsafeWindow, anyway! - Hao Chen
of the 100 entries typical 50 are hidden for me. hid all twitter, pownce, identica without likes. I'm more interested in the stuff from friendfeed nowadays unless the other items have likes or comments. - Alan Le
Yeah, me, too. - Hao Chen
Hao, it still needs 'unsafeWindow' for Greasemonkey or else it won't work. If you want to make it Opera compatible, see http://pastebin.mozilla.org/51... - LouCypher

This is for viewing only. To write multiple-line comment, use Notepad and paste the text to FriendFeed comment textarea. - LouCypher
Does it work? This is a test. EDIT: Apparently not. EDIT 2: Oops, I forgot the script. :) - possible248

Yes, click on hide, then click again and you can choose your rules, eg keep your friends comments but hide all their friends that are not connected to you. You can also hide their stuff that does have comments/likes. - Sally Church
The only options I see are for hiding other content of the type, from my friends or everyone, having likes or not. That's different from hiding items of any type that a specific friend comments on but weren't posted by someone in my friends list. You're just subscribed to too many people, Sally! I'm not a Scoble, I can't handle it. ;-) - Mr. Gunn
Ok Mr Gunn, you have to go to an item that says "X (fiend of Sally Church) posted... " and click on Hide. Then click again - you should get 5 options including "hide all stuff from friends of fiends". That should solve your problem for all FOAF and keep your stream tidy just for the important stuff relating to YOUR friends. Or you can just hide stuff from my friends in that option list :) - Sally Church

You could adapt the "Imaginary Friends Tab" userscript (or any other script like that) to add your custom room tabs... http://is.gd/11LA - David Bittencourt
Perfect. Thanks David. - Walter Jessen

Because I can't see my own history from before June 1st. Can you? - Andy Roberts
Archives are currently only accessible up to page 11 (i.e., the 330 latest items). I think FF acknowledged this will be fixed someday. - Ole Begemann
I hope they fix this because if not I'll gladly archive my "life stream" on a web-site that wants it... - "Czar" DJ Peterman
Thanks for the info Ole. This could be quite important when we start to see how the search engines view Friendfeed pages and rooms further down the line. I wonder if the permalinks within the inaccessible pages still work. - Andy Roberts
Suggested alternatives for archiving lifestreams? - Secondbrain , lifestream.fm more ? - Andy Roberts

Is that even necessary, when you can just tell FF to block twitter? - Mr. Gunn
Mr. Gunn if you are pulling the rss feed then it is a good one. - (jeff)isageek

this with the groups and filters is just nice! - Tim Hoeck via NoiseRiver
Thanks Czar. I'll try it. - Vijay Sadasivam
The sticky search overlaps on the first feed on my 'friends' page. Any tweak? - Vijay Sadasivam
except they overlap currently :( - Tim Hoeck via NoiseRiver
Scanman, Thanks. I'm sure this script has a lot of potential. One way I'm using it is to "sticky" friends using "who:exampleusername." Then you have an automatic way of known when these particular friends add new content. [edit: example; http://www.flickr.com/photos/c...] - "Czar" DJ Peterman
get out.. this thing autoupdates? Nice. - Tim Hoeck via NoiseRiver
You can move the sticky 'box' around. Find line #173 and edit the position, width, etc... (and it does auto-update, added example to earlier reply.) - "Czar" DJ Peterman
Czar, I found the line and altered the width. No overlap with feed now. But I couldn't alter the height / rows, so it stil overlaps the search box, add & edit tabs. Is the line height in the same line? I'm a newbie at this jsscript thingy & I'm just doing this on the fly (blind). - Vijay Sadasivam
http://twitpic.com/3x1g this is what I'm talking about. - Vijay Sadasivam
Not pertinent to this, but don't u think it'd be great if we could hyperlink & attach files in comments. Any hacks for that? - Vijay Sadasivam
You can try to pad it for a quick fix. Same line and within the style preference paste "padding-top:40px;" - "Czar" DJ Peterman
Vijay, I removed '+_top+' and just put 120px, not sure yet if it will work fine like that, but it seems to. - Tim Hoeck via NoiseRiver
Tim, Your hack works!! Thanks. - Vijay Sadasivam
Czar, the padding didn't work... I probably put it in at the wrong place. I'm happy for now. - Vijay Sadasivam

[userstyles] Hides room list and shows it again if you move the cursor onto page header
July 12 at 12:17 am - Link
This is very useful if you have joined, for example, 100 rooms ; ) http://friendfeed.com/e/e828de... - LouCypher
very nice little hack - (jeff)isageek
i loaded this one as well as the cleaner friendfeed and there appear to be some issues having both running at the same time. it wont let me select some of the rooms when the the room list reappears. - (jeff)isageek
yeah, the top row can't be access with cleaner friendfeed.. thats a shame - Tim Hoeck via NoiseRiver
Edit "Cleaner FriendFeed" and replace ".logo img{" with "#tabhead .logo{" in line 29 - LouCypher
LouCypher, replacing ".logo img" w/ "#tabhead .logo" fixed this bug (for me.) Thanks - "Czar" DJ Peterman
Updated "Cleaner FriendFeed" with this fix. Thanks to LouCypher (http://userstyles.org/styles/8...) - AJ Batac

Love the tweak to ".feed .entry .comments .comment.friendcomment" and ".feed .entry .comments .comment.owner.friendcomment" - "Czar" DJ Peterman
I like this better than Better Friendfeed. - Hao Chen
Yeah, like it very much... using it with Fluid as a userscript - David Bittencourt
I had a quick look on my iMac and changed something... Updated :-) - AJ Batac
Cool. Nice combo with my styles http://friendfeed.com/e/d33a78... - LouCypher
Great stuff LouCypher ;-) - AJ Batac
You too, AJ : ) - LouCypher
Usually I prefer How Chen's stuff, but this one is better, IMO - Phil (scribkin)

Updated! v0.3 FriendFeed Profile – Userscripts.org
July 9 at 10:39 pm - via Reshare - Link
how do I edit a usercript once I have installed it? - Gaby Benkwitz
Consiliera, Right click on the GM Icon (located bottom right) and "Manage User Scripts". Find the script and click "Edit" (next to Enable.) Save and refresh. - "Czar" DJ Peterman
I thought it doens't show because I was logged in, but I can't see it when I'm signed out, either. It's installed, enabled and still doesn't show (or do you see my profile now?) - Gaby Benkwitz
This script pulls the Bio from a) Twitter b) Linkedin. - "Czar" DJ Peterman
Czar: thank you, I don't import Twitter updates anymore - I bet that's why the script can't find my bio. Too bad, I hope they'll add a bio soon - Gaby Benkwitz
