HN is a nice place, because you decide how to use it. You can just add HN users to your bookmarks and follow them from time to time. You could also make a simple Chrome plugin. I've built my own private Chrome plugins, for example, to add to my experience to HN. I keep them private as I find it more respectful. With that said, I use the public Refined Hacker News [1] as well. The fact that HN is conservative on changing its features is what I like about it. If I want a new feature, I'll build it myself.
