Really nice, but where do I find upvote links on frontpage ? I don't see any greyarrow, am I missing something ?

Looks like you have to go into the comments. A feature request is needed, me thinks.

Agreed, going to disable the enhancement suite until this is added.

This is probably just nitpicky but on Mac's the default scroll bar is only shown when scrolling and it covers the profile information in top right. Shifting it to the left a tad bit would make it a bit cleaner. Otherwise looks good!

Could you add the ability to hide/ignore particular users, and the threads they spawn?

Is there a Firefox version?

It's great, except that there should be a `max-width` property so widescreen users don't get cross-eyed.

Maybe you could add some of the example screenshots to the README? Screenshots in READMEs are the bee's knees. Not to sound like Dr Seuss.

I'm curious to know how many users read HN via the website vs. RSS. Personally, I use RSS through GoogleReader. Are you guys finding the experience better through this extension?

My entry point to hacker news is actually on hckrnews.com and I took a few design pointers from that site when I made this. I very rarely actually see the front page but this extension improves the comments and other pages as well.

Collapsable comments! Joy!

Also, thanks for putting it on the hub[1] for forkage. I look forward to twiddling.

Hey everyone, original author here. Thanks for the feature requests and issues on GitHub. I'm away from my dev box for a few days but I'll see to them soon.

Since you have keyboard controls, what would you think of having enter take you to the item, and shift-enter open it in a new tab?
