Hi all, developer of Refined Hacker News here! Happy to see that it has been posted about again, thanks @jaytaylor! As stated in my previous Show HN for this extension, my philosophy behind the extension (as mentioned in the my comment) is:
> There are many extensions out there that add quite a few features to Hacker News, but they also always do one thing, which I have realised, is a slippery slope: changing the minimalistic design and style of Hacker News.
> I created this extension with one thing in mind: I am NOT going to mess around with the overall design or style of Hacker News. It's sacrosanct.
Thanks, I'm up for discussion! :D
