Custom CSS

I'm using the free self-hosted version of Metabase and it's been great. My only real issue is the lack of custom stylesheet support.

Being able to inject a simple CSS file (without modifying source) would go a long way toward matching internal branding and making dashboards feel more natural for my end users. I understand something similar exists in paid tiers, but for small teams self-hosting on a tight budget, even a basic styling hook would be a massive improvement.

Not likely to happen. You can do all that using the pro version.

You might be able to do something using a proxy server like NGINX to inject stuff. I’ve only used it to block features such as download.
