It's in the user menu (icon top right). If you mean for your own comments, that's a bug and will be fixed in the next update.

Thanks for the feedback, glad you like it :) Will add tooltips to icons in the next update + fix that 100% width bug too.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to make the space in the comment header clickable to collapse/expand, which will reduce the distance a bit. Would that work for you? The other alternative might be to add a setting to move the c

It's a nice idea! One consideration would be how to grab the html of the pages. In my experience, using either fetch() or an ajax request often runs into problems with CORS etc on the destination site blocking the request. Maybe there&

Thanks, glad to hear it helps :) Good point, they should be separate settings. I'm going to add more theme adjustment settings in future updates to solve that.

Thanks, glad you're enjoying it :) Good suggestions, I will try to make the commenting process clearer, and add a favorite icon to the lists too.

Hmm, this seems to be because of Google's new policy for verifying extensions. The domain (modernhn.com) hasn't been used for an extension before, so it needs to be around for a few months with a good track record to be verified.

- Good point, I'll add a setting in the next update to always show icons. - Parent / context are in the menu just to keep the design clean. But I understand that's not what everyone wants, so I will add a setting to show thes

Thanks for the suggestions, glad you like it. The theme settings (font size/width/line height) apply to the current view. So you can setup the style separately for each of the 3 views: story pages + index pages (list or table view

Good point, I'll add prev / next back in the next update. They've been moved to the "control pad" (pro feature) in the extension, but my intention is for the free version to support all current HN features.

Thanks :) Yes the plan is definitely to add more font selection, including Verdana for the classic look! I'd like to eventually add a full theme editor to change all aspects of the UI.

Thanks :) Will add the comment score. Clicking the header to collapse is a good idea, I'll get that working too.

Cool ideas! It would definitely be possible to build in a cloud sync feature at some point to enable those features.

Looks like that's a bug, sorry about that. Will be fixed in the next update. For reference, in the Pro version you can set the storage for your favorites to private (local browser storage) or public (HN profile). It's currently se

It's possible, but as I mentioned in another comment, building this as an extension has some added benefits [1]. > that way I don't have to bloat the browser's start-up time and don't have to "worry" about t

There's some overhead, but not much. It basically just parses the underlying HTML as soon as it's loaded, then redraws it with added features. Also no heavy frameworks used, just basic hand-coded JS + jquery + a few helper librari

The extension uses ExtensionPay [1] to accept payments via Stripe for the Pro upgrade. It's open source and created by HN user Glench [2]. [1] https://github.com/glench/ExtPay [2] https://news.ycombinat
