Hmm. Not sure I understand this. How would this information be presented to the user? And would the computer somehow assume I've read all comments currently present on the page / in the current comment chain?
- krapp 10y agoYou could highlight the first comment of each new subthread, or have an option to collapse the threads down to that point. You could even have a single button that scrolls down to each consecutive new comment chain. But it would probably have to be a lot more minimalistic than a new sidebar.
- KajMagnus 10y agoOk, that sounds like the Chrome extension that adds "orange lines next to new comments since your last visit", mentioned in this comment (on this same page): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12664187 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12664187 A button to scroll down to the next unread comment thread sounds interesting.
