Better Bogleheads improves your browsing experience on the Bogleheads.org home page. FEATURES Zebra Striping Add alternating row colors to the topic list for easier reading. Choose any color you like. Hide Read Topics Automatically tracks topics you've clicked and lets you hide them. Topics reappear when new replies are posted, so you never miss new activity. Unread Badge Shows the count of unread topics on the extension icon. The badge color changes based on how many unread topics you have: green (1-20), yellow (21-60), or red (61+). Highlight Hot Topics Make popular topics stand out by highlighting topics above a customizable reply threshold. Choose your own highlight color. Hide Old Topics Filter out topics older than a specified number of days to focus on recent discussions. Adjustable Font Size Increase or decrease the topic list font size from 50% to 200% for comfortable reading. Mark as Read (Right-Click) Right-click any topic row to mark it as read without opening it. Useful for clearing topics you're not interested in. Pointer Cursor Enable a pointer cursor when hovering over topic rows to make them feel more clickable. Time Tracking See how much time you spend on Bogleheads.org.
