How To Install, Use And Write A Userscript: A Tampermonkey & Violentmonkey Tutorial
Has links to Tampermonkey (works with Google Chrome, Opera, Microsoft Edge, Safari) and Violentmonkey (available in Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Maxthon)

Greasemonkey had to alter its API to keep up, so old scripts apparently have to be rewritten.

Trying out Tampermonkey with Opera.
I'm looking forward to an AI-free browsing experience on Hacker News. (https://news.ycombinator.com)
