@gnu2 I have not used #PleromaFE Pleroma front end on GS, but on its own #Pleroma back end, there is a setting to hide the site's built in background image. Unfortunately, it does not remember from session to session, so you have to import your own settings each time you log in.
I'm not sure whether the #Soapbox front-end can be used with #GNU_Social. #Pleroma started out as a front-end for #GS, as #Qvitter started falling behind. So even though #PleromaFE currently doesn't support GS, it may be possible to go back to when support was removed and re-add it.
@shpuld@moonman#Pleroma_FE still has too much #JabbaShit. It gets tiring waiting for the 'do you want ro kill this script' dialog every time you post something or load rhe page. #JavaScript
