Download Lemmy.ML Community By New for Firefox. Sorts the searched-for lemmy community by new. So 'c printsf' will return the printsf community already ordered by newest items first.

Hi everyone,

So I have created a “sublemmy” add-on for lemmy.ml that lets you quickly jump to a community from the address bar in FireFox. Just type ‘c firefox’, for example, and it will go there and sort the community by new. Useful if you have a few communities you want to check regularly and quickly from any new browser window.

The one caveat is that this tool only works for the website lemmy.ml because that is the site hardwired into the search string, alas. Not sure if there is a way around that (that would maybe take 2 arguments instead of one?) but that’s where it’s at for now.

Link is included if anyone wants to use it!

    Thanks! While it may just be a manifest, I believe that allowing access no matter how small the project is always a solid option. Who knows, maybe one day a beginner coder may come across this and wonder how to replicate it for their own uses, and while I’m sure there are other sources they could reference having another is always helpful.
