The reason I use MS Edge to read Hacker News. Wunderbar! |

Hands down the best visual upgrade you can make to HN. It even has a dark theme! |

Really liked it, second time that I'm using it (after a previous un-install). Biggest problem (for me, at least) is the submit to HN page...there is very little space to work with when editing the title of the submission...in that respect, HN Special is far inferior to the Post to HN bookmarklet. If you ever do manage to push an update (no pressure Dan), do let me know (with a reply/etc). Otherwise, functional extension. |
