Ask HN: Which Extension brings the best out of HN?
A while ago I had an extension, which gave me a bell Icon that alerted me to new comments. After switching to Vivaldi (Following a reinstall) I've been unable to find this plugin but am now using another.
Have you guys found some gems out there?
- krapp 5y agoI like HN Comments Owl: https://github.com/insin/hn-comments-owl https://github.com/insin/hn-comments-owl
- yesenadam 5y agoThanks, I just started using it, seems awesome. I found though that after hiding "reply"s once, I can't get them back.[0] They reappear for 1/3 of a second then disappear again. But I've realized "reply" really is never needed at all - just click on the comment time to get to the reply page. Just that one feature makes every HN page much more readable. HN should change to be like that, I think. The new comments thing is cool too. And blocking/muting will be very satisfying next time someone is a twat to me on here :-) Strange how it's not more popular. The vast majority of comments on HN about it are yours!
