Hacker News Enhancement Suite
Overview
Hacker News Enhanced.
Hacker News Enhancement Suite reimagines news.ycombinator.com for power users. Comes with a cleaner layout, inline replies, collapsible threads, tag and upvote tracking for other users, and keyboard navigation (`j`, `k`, `o`, `l`, `p`, `b`) so you can triage stories without leaving the home row. Highlights: - Fresh typography and spacing to reduce visual noise - `New comment` indicators since your last visit and quick poll graphs - Inline reply box with spinner feedback, plus comment collapsing/expanding - Tag users or highlight scores to remember key contributors - Persistent settings saved with Chrome’s storage APIs—no external services This fork after the original, updated for Manifest V3 and uses a service-worker background script; it requires Chrome 109+ or any current Chromium-based browser. Firefox users should stay on the legacy MV2 build until Mozilla rolls out MV3 service-worker support. Load it via Developer Mode or package with the included `zip.sh` before uploading to the Chrome Web Store. Source and contributor notes live at https://github.com/testy-cool/HNES. Swap the GitHub URL for your fork, bump version in manifest.json, rebuild the .zip, and you’re ready to submit.
