+1. I also recommend Hacked Hacker News [1] for unread comment counts on the homepage, highlighting unread comments and inline commenting/editing. I also use Hacker News Collapse [2] to make comment threads collapsible. 1: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hacked-hacker-news/hlddllcemddpbekleofllndfidcgbgdp https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hacked-hacker-news... 2: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hacker-news-collapse/bbkfcamiocfccgmcjngdljolljhifdph https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hacker-news-collap...

My favorite is Hacker News Enhancement Suite [1], for unread comment counts, voting on front page, highlight unread, inline comment, collapsible thread, etc. 1: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hacker-news-enhancement-s/bappiabcodbpphnojdiaddhnilfnjmpm https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hacker-news-enhanc...

  It has color coded upvote counts too! http://i.imgur.com/6NQyhPI.png http://i.imgur.com/6NQyhPI.png I take pull requests at https://github.com/etcet/HNES https://github.com/etcet/HNES but I only have a few hours a week to work on it.

Using these two plus the OPs link color one, working pretty nicely! Hacker News Enhancement suite changes the look and feel too significantly for me to use it.

Thanks for these. Now what we need is something like Reddit Companion [1], which injects a toolbar to visited pages so that you can just click on a story and then go to the comments. If that sounds un-noteworthy: Ordinarily, if you open a story link, it's somewhat cumbersome to get to the HN comments. I typically open the HN comments first, then follow the link to the story, so that I can always use the back button to get the comments. Or I open the HN comments in a separate tab, then the story. If I'm less than careful, I'll open the story, go to lunch, come back and not find the HN comments because it's dropped off the front page and the HN title is so different from the story headline that it's impossible except by brute force.
