Install Userscript
How?

To install the Userscript, you'll need a Userscript Manager extension. Tampermonkey is a popular one, and I use it as well.

If Chrome gives you a weird error, or you only see code, then you likely don't have one installed.

Once you have it installed, click "Install Userscript" and follow the prompts.

Usage

On neocities.org, hover over a user to see a hover preview of the site.

The script will attempt to get the thumbnail and name from the page you're already on. If that fails, then it will load the entire user page in the background to get its details (this can be lengthy: that fallback is intentionally rate-limited as to not bombard Neocities).

Additional Information

Neocities API usage is not implemented

Tags and view counts are currently fetched by loading the user page. This can be drastically improved by instead using the Neocities API, but this isn't implemented yet.
