Hacker News Reader

Ah, that’s right. (It’s the [-] link in the comment header.) RFN does have a link at the top of the story page called "toggle all commments," but I guess it’s broken, as it only seems to toggle the first comment. The extension does have a convenient feature, a [collapse root] link on each comment in a thread, so you can collapse the thread from within it, without having to find its origin.

Hi! Creater of Refined Hacker New here :).

You mentioned that the "toggle all comments" button is broken, could you elaborate a bit more on that, and if possible open a GitHub issue for it? Thanks a lot :D.

Apart from that, with RHN you can navigate through the comments using the "J" and "K" keyboard keys and Press "Enter" on the highlighted comment to toggle it. Hope that helps too, cheers :)

Thanks for the great extension, it makes reading HN more...refined.

Well, I tried the [toggle all comments] button on a couple of stories before posting my comment, and it was only toggling the first comment. But I did more testing for this reply, and now it’s working as advertised. I can’t explain that, but if I every figure out the conditions that prevent it from working, I’ll open an issue.

Alright, glad it's working now! And thanks for the kind words, appreciate it.
