Suggestions from "dcent" at gnusocial.net (I've applied them and it works fine):

As an exercise in trying to make the default 'elbinario' theme a bit more visually pleasing I have done (and fixed) a few things. You can add this CSS to any page in the browser.

It's not everything that I would do but its a start. There are some issues with the HTML for example commas in the LIST section are not directly after the comma separated item and so their are new lines that start with commas. Also, when tagging sometimes the '@' symbol is not part of the link, which looks messy. Likewise the '#' symbol in hashtags is not part of the link. Again, looks messy.

Anyone can add this CSS to any 'elbinario' themed page in the browser, right-click > Inspect, go to Style Editor tab, find display.css, paste the follow CSS above the line of the display.css that reads, "/end of @media screen, projection, tv/"
