Chat room description and tags may only be useful a first couple of times you come by a chat room. After that, they are just wasting space. To hide them from the view, you can install the following userscript: // ==UserScript== // @name Hide chat room description and tags // @namespace maidcafe // @match *://chat.stackexchange.com/* // @match *://chat.stackoverflow.com/* // @match *://chat.meta.stackexchange.com/* // @version 1 // @grant none // ==/UserScript== function addGlobalStyle(css) { style = document.createElement('style'); style.innerHTML = css; document.head.appendChild(style); } addGlobalStyle('#roomdesc, #room-tags {display: none;}'); Or this Stylish script: @namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml); @-moz-document domain("chat.stackexchange.com"), domain("chat.stackoverflow.com"), domain("chat.meta.stackexchange.com") { #sidebar #info #roomdesc, #sidebar #info #room-tags {display: none !important;} }
