Show HN: HN++ I know many are happy with the HN frontend. I wrote this for fun and it turned out really useful so I published it. Here are the most important features: - Rainbow indentation: This is inspired by the Rainbow CSV extension - comments of the same "depth" have the same colored stripe on the left. - Native filters: Filter the various frontpages (Top, Show...) by upvote count or comment count. There is a "Controversial" (comment count > upvote count) filter too, if you want drama. - Read later: Save comments and posts and revisit them through a bookmark menu. Saved to local storage. - Collapsible sticky header: No need to scroll back up to see thread details and navigate to submitted link - Infinite scroll: No pagination, you just continue scrolling. - Styled quotes: Paragraphs starting with ">" are styled as a blockquote - Reply as usual: You can click on Write reply and it takes you to the same page that would open in the regular HN UI - Favicons: Helps my brain focus. Uses the DuckDuckGo favicon service + caching. - Dark mode! - "Open links in new tab": Especially useful on mobile. Can be toggled in the settings. - Slightly more intuitive navigation? Atleast to me it makes more sense. Clicking a submission title, c2a button or comment count directs you to the thread. Clicking a submission link takes you to the link. If you have any good ideas or see a bug, feel free to tell me https://hnplusplus.vercel.app December 17, 2025 at 03:45AM
