Suggestion: Hide my logged-in username while browsing

Edit

It looks like I was experiencing some kind of weird bug last night that went away sometime after I posted this. My statement that CSS-based extensions aren't working was just my extensions not working for whatever reason.

With that in mind, a much better solution exists. By using an extension such as Stylus or Tildes Extended (see how to install styles), you can use the following CSS instead of the original JavaScript:

/* Hide the username. */
#site-header .logged-in-user-info {
    display: none;
}

/* Hide comment ownership indication. */
body .is-comment-mine > .comment-itself {
    border-left-color: inherit;
    border-left: initial;
    margin-left: inherit;
}

This isn't really a feature that would be suitable as an inclusion to Tildes itself. That being said, you could absolutely use an extension for this. Unfortunately it doesn't look like Stylus or other CSS-based extensions are working right now, so JavaScript will have to be used instead. Tampermonkey is a fairly popular option that works for both Chrome and Firefox. A quick and dirty script that should work for this might look something like this:

// ==UserScript==
// @name         Hide Tildes Username
// @namespace    http://tampermonkey.net/
// @version      0.1
// @description  Hides the username from being displayed on Tildes.
// @author       Emerald_Knight
// @match        https://tildes.net/*
// @grant        none
// ==/UserScript==

(function() {
    Array.prototype.slice.call(document.getElementsByClassName('logged-in-user-info')).forEach((elem) => {
        elem.style.display = 'none';
    });
})();

Do note that your username will still display while the page is loading, however.

Userscript this sorta thing.
