tr.athing + tr {display: none;}
This will just turn the home page in to a list of links, without any of the links for comments, upvote counts, etc. on each item.

- NilsIRL 7y agoYou can also use your adblocker (e.g. ublock origin) and specify a custom rule to remove the comments. That's what I do to remove the YouTube front page.
- thecatspaw 7y agoDo you remove the whole frontpage? I mostly use it to remove unwanted sections, like the "posts by youtubers" thing. No I am not interested in what you ate for breakfast, or if you think your video did worse than usual.
- NilsIRL 7y agoI just remove the unwanted parts because there are some interesting stuff on the front page such as settings, account, saved videos, subscriptions...
- TeMPOraL 7y agoI cut off some fat from YouTube with Stylus, but I guess an ad blocker might work too (and maybe even prevent some requests from being made).
- noir_lord 7y agoI did the same to remove youtube comments, they are incredibly rarely interesting and I hate the bile catching my eye even accidently.

- Insanity 7y agoThanks! I quite like the way that looks :)
- StanAngeloff 7y agoI've tweaked this to allow for the comments/favourite/etc. to show after you stop moving your mouse for a while: tr.athing + tr { opacity: 0; } tr.athing:hover + tr, tr.athing + tr:hover { opacity: 1; transition: opacity 2.3333s cubic-bezier(1.000, 0.005, 1.000, -0.500); }
- aasasd 7y agoYeah, no need for Go or anything server-side for this. But also, an annoying aspect of HN's design is that the markup lacks semantic classes and is thus difficult to amend with CSS.
