I just wish you could remove the number next to your name natively in HN. It can't seriously take more than 5 minutes to implement this. There's no excuse IMHO.

- oehpr 6y agoI can sympathize. I used to have a filter for reddit to eliminate the tally because I didn't like the effect it had on me. I think the thing is though, HN and reddit don't give you options to remove these numbers because they have an effect. It's the nudge they give to people to adjust their contributions to be something the community actually wants. No shock these services are not offering options to turn that nudge off. It might be nice of them to give the tally as class to make it easy to filter with a userstyle, though.
