Along those lines, I recommend a Chrome extension called "Shut Up" [0] which hides most sites' comments by default. I have it allow comments for a few sites like HN but most of the time I know I'm not missing much.

- pyre 12y agoWhat would be the point of hiding comments on HN, where the entire point is the comments?
- DanAndersen 12y agoHence why I enable comments on HN. But most sites are mostly article+comments and in those cases the comments are often pointless.
- pyre 12y agoIs it just using some sort of heuristic to determine the comments? I was thinking that that might have 'rules' for each site individually, which would make no sense for HN (because why bother for a site where the comments are the whole point).
