Highlight new comments, mute users, and other tweaks for Hacker News
Comments Owl for Hacker News Extension
Features:
List pages:
• Show new comment counts since you last viewed each item - clicking on the \"X new\" link will highlight new comments and collapse comment trees which don't contain any new comments
• Prevent accidental flagging and hiding on mobile by making the \"flag\" and \"hide\" controls require confirmation, or hiding them
Item pages:
• Highlight new comments and collapse comment trees which don't contain any new comments when you revisit an item's comments - you can configure whether or not this happens automatically when you revisit
• Default comment folding controls are replaced with a Reddit-style left-aligned control, with a slightly larger hit target
• Manually highlight the X most-recent comments using the new \"highlight comments\" link on an item
• Mute users to hide their comments and replies to them - muted users can be managed on your own profile page
• Logged out users get a new 'muted' link in the header they can use to manage their muted users
• Add your own notes to other users on their profile page - the first line will be displayed next to their comments
• Toggle display of \"reply\" links below comments to make more room for comments on the screen
• Increased distance between the upvote and downvote arrows on mobile
• Increase the contrast of submission text
Navigation:
• Hide navigation items you don't use
• Add an \"upvoted\" link to the header to make it easier to get back to previously visited items
• Improves mobile navigation by display links below other header contents
