Aside from the fact that the 502 users who blocked this sub won't actually see this post or the sub itself, the custom CSS for this sub is useless to send messages to people if they have disabled the custom stylesheets option on Poal. In fact the custom CSS option should be disabled by anyone concerned with security and privacy as custom sub stylesheets can be used to bring external resources and files which could be malicious or track you. Because of this security risk, I have had custom CSS disabled since day one. You could be leaking information to malicious actors if you keep this feature enabled. Don't trade security for flashy site experiences. Be careful out there.

Rather than getting some lulz in, perhaps you should help educate your flock about the dangers of custom CSS use and also how to disable the feature if they want to have a safer browsing experience here. You would be surprised just how much information can be obtained from an image hosted on an external server that is linked to via CSS. Don't give bad actors information against you.

Well since you seem to be an expert on it, it would be neat if you made a post, and then I sticky it.
