If you use Stylus (or any similar browser extension), I actually wrote a style to hide points for that very reason, replacing karma and scores with `•••`
This is actually the second time I see someone mentioning this need, so I've made it into a gist and published it to userstyles, but here's it is also since it's pretty short:
@-moz-document domain("news.ycombinator.com") {
/* Hide karma and points on replies */
span.pagetop #karma, span.comhead span.score {
visibility: hidden;
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
height: 10px !important;
overflow: hidden;
}
span.pagetop #karma {
width: 0.8rem !important;
}
span.comhead span.score {
width: 0.8rem !important;
}
span.pagetop #karma::before, span.comhead span.score::before {
content: "•••";
visibility: visible;
overflow: hidden;
opacity: 0.8;
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif !important;
}
}
