I use it for a bunch of minor HN mods already, and it's great :)
- DoreenMichele 6y agoMy in-house tech support is opposed to me using browser extensions. I don't understand them and have never used them. I tried briefly to get one to work, then found out my tech support frowns on such, so I was happy to call it quits. I have no plans at this time to go to a third party service for this or add an extension. Though I have been thinking since I wrote the above of changing my top bar color. I'm fine with HN moving slow and preserving things. That works for me. But the only way I will go to dark mode on HN is if it is possible to somehow do that through HN. Maybe someday I will change my mind about that. But not today.
- vardump 6y agoExtensions don't work when you have a lot of different devices. I think I access HN with maybe ~5-10 different devices. Being able to add some custom user definable CSS visible just for you on HN sounds like a great idea to me.
- saagarjha 6y agoExtensions do not really work on mobile, unless you go out of your way to find something that supports them.
- gnicholas 6y agoThis is true for Chrome/Safari, which are the most popular mobile browsers. But Kiwi can run some/many Chrome extensions, and Brave has this on the roadmap for 2020.
