Was the period removed? I remember a few months ago, there would be a `.` after the post age if it was the user's most recent post. Looks like it's not there anymore though.
- dang 5y agoA lot of people didn't like it so I made it moderator-only. I'm not sure it's really that useful in the end.
- eps 5y agoWhy not make it a user preference, like showdead & co? Just make it off by default.
- dang 5y agoThere are only so many slots available for user preferences before things become much too complicated, and I don't think that one clears the bar. It's much harder to remove these things than to add them. Better not to get on the bad side of that Maxwell demon.
- eps 5y agoTo be honest, I'd take all the options you can throw at me. And a command line to manage them. It's HN after all. PS. Just hide them behind a karma threshold and a tickbox to acknowledge that they all are ephemeral and can disappear at will. Complications, like in mechanical watches. For people who can appreciate them, to show what's possible :)
