Ask PG: Would you consider making comment tree collapsable?
I'll be surprised if no one has asked this before. On a very popular topic, it's hard to get to a different comment branch.
- thehodge 13y agoif you use chrome, theres an extension in the chrome store that does this, it works really well
- veesahni 13y agoIF you're using chrome, install this: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hckr-news/mnlaodleonmmfkdhfofamacceeikgecp https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hckr-news/mnlaodle... It highlights new comments and makes threads collapsible
- pdenya 13y agoI have the chrome extension that others have mentioned already installed but I'd still like to see this as a default on the site rather than something only a few have. For one thing I imagine it would spread out the conversations in threads better. Currently most threads have one comment with a lot of replies at the top and not much going on below it. Is there some stated reason why there aren't currently collapsible comments?

- inthewind 13y agoI'd very much like a solution to this without a browser extension. Even having reddit style comment tree lines would help with eye tracking. I find it difficult to just skip a thread.
