I’m sure that the tagging of posts has tremendous value in some contexts, but at the moment I’m finding it just slightly cluttering – more visual noise, and harder at-a-glance scanning of recent posts.
Does the forum software allow for opting out of them, or switching them off until they’re needed ?
( I think their value might be more appreciated in time of need if their day-to-day cognitive cost were lower )
It’s possible there is some user-level option, or its possible such an option could be added.
Another possibility might be a custom style sheet which I believe most web browsers support. Setting the .discourse-tag display style to none will remove the tags (whether it has some negative impact elsewhere I don’t know).
It will inject custom style sheet code that hides the tags.
Perfect – many thanks – and your code works well in a KM Execute JavaScript in Google Chrome action too.
This macro uses your script to switch to a cleaner and more readable view of the forum, and tags can be restored, when they are of interest, with a ⌘R page reload.
Maybe a bit OT, but I find that tagging can be a beneficial thing to this this forum. OK, the tags at the moment are still imperfect, but this will improve.
I’m ambiguous to tagging. I never used it in the Finder (though I tried), I once used it in DevonThink and now I’m using it in EagleFiler. I’m not (efficiently) using it in the Finder because, probably, I’m just too habituated to folder hierarchies. But in some limited scopes it’s very useful. And I think this may be also the case here.
