In 2019 I set up a bot to store titles for HN stories as soon as they appear on the "new" page, so that I could then compare them to the current version.
I had also made a browser extension for FF and Chrome that compared the current version of any HN story to the stored one, and displayed a warning if they differed.
There was zero downloads of the extensions, so they fell into disrepair and don't work anymore, but the cron job for storing the titles is still active.
If there is any interest I could resuscitate the extensions, or some other system to make that information useful.
