Do you use userscripts or other automation options like autohotkey? Which ones do you find most useful? Could you recommend some good sources(including lemmy communities) that are on the topic? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Had read about them recently when looking up about bookmarklets:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Userscript

Which userscript manager do you use? What are your opinions/advice on security of using them?

Also, are there other similar things like bookmarklets and userscripts that regular people can start off fast?

Are there any lemmy communities or resouces(wikis, forums, youtube channels etc) that are on the topic of simple/beginner-friendly automation and customisation?

Thanks in advance

I use a few of them. There's one to bring back YouTube dislikes, one to translate Lemmy links to my home instance, and another (self written) one to automatically change the YouTube share button to copy which copies the link in s single click.

There are a few more, but these are the most useful ones to me, I guess. I use ViolentMonkey as my script manager.

Thank you.

The script for Lemmy would be awesome. Could you share it, if possible?
