browse (Old) Reddit with Lemmy style (programming.dev)

don't know if this is the correct community to post this on, but is there a way to style Reddit (most likely old Reddit but it doesn't matter) with a similar style to Lemmy? there are a few small subreddits I still browse (because there is no Lemmy equivalent) and it would be cool if I could style it like the regular Lemmy style (if you need an example: lemmy.ml)

I know there are frontends for viewing Lemmy instances like Reddit, but I haven't heard of any way to do the reverse.

it could be through a stylesheet, an alternative frontend, even just a pointer on how you could style a website into a different style.
thanks!

You could download the Lemmy Frontend and rewire the API to point to the reddit API

If you just want to modify a bunch of things client side, you could download the browser extension Stylish

okay thanks for the tip! I'm already using Stylish but I couldn't find a pre-made style for Lemmy.

I figured I could make my own but I didn't want to waste time doing something that could have been done already or could be done faster. at least I know I'm on the right track!
