I honestly never even noticed it was a feature until you just mentioned it here.
- have_faith 6y agoDitto, I didn't ever notice it and I've been on here for years.
- gambiting 6y agoI'm on 10k+ karma and I literally didn't know it existed.
- CydeWeys 6y ago20k+ karma here and same. I haven't favorited so much as a single article. Didn't realize it was an option. So the top favorited list is probably biased in some way towards the type of people more likely to discover and use this feature. I just don't know exactly what that entails.
- throwaway_pdp09 6y agoI've noticed these and that's probably only because I trained myself to look carefully at stuff (that was a lot of work too). Small, light grey font on a beige background, well, what did HN expect.
- CydeWeys 6y agoYeah, that's a separate but related issue: HN's UI is too low contrast to the point of posing an accessibility issue. It kind of tells you everything you need to know about YCombinator (and maybe SV VC in general) that its biggest watering hole doesn't make even this basic concession towards accessibility.
- throwaway_pdp09 6y agoI agree but HN does work rather well without JS enabled, so credit where credit's due.
- LandR 6y agoIf you click on the time bit '14 minutes ago' in a users comment you go to a page where you can favourite individual comments too.
- JackFr 6y agoWhoa!
- bovermyer 6y agoI'm in the same boat. Even knowing it's there now, I have to look hard for it; there's no visual anchor to draw my eye there.
- dhimes 6y agoI've seen it there for years but have no idea what it does. I don't really care-I bookmark things I like.
