| // @description Make Discord blink the input textbox upon being refocused (it seems unsafe to type at a window without a blinking cursor). | |
| // ==/UserScript== | |
| // Discord does this weird thing where it stops the cursor from blinking in the input textbox if | |
| // you blur it. When refocusing the window, it doesn’t restore the blinking cursor. This bugs | |
| // me because, in everything else, not having a blinking cursor means that weird things will | |
| // happen if you start typing (e.g., activating mnemonics in winforms). So, add logic to refocus | |
| // the text input. | |
| window.addEventListener('focus', e => { | |
| // Because Discord does some weird blurring of everything when it blurs, the refocus upon switching | |
| // tabs or refocusing the browser itself will be targeted at the window. Other focus events are probably | |
| // legit, so don’t do things because that’ll break stuff. | |
| if (e.target !== window) { | |
| return; | |
| } | |
| // Locate the current input textbox. | |
| const textChannelInputBox = document.querySelector('div[data-slate-editor=true][aria-label^=\'#\']'); | |
| if (!textChannelInputBox) { | |
| return; | |
| } | |
| textChannelInputBox.focus(); | |
| }, false); |

I gave up and now use the desktop client. But I haven’t needed the desktop clients’ features in a while…
