Extension Usage Instructions

                        Announcement: This will be the last update (supporting https), please refer to my HN+ if you want to keep getting updates:

I've been a long time HackerNews reader. But over time I've come to dislike the way it looks. So with this extension, I am focusing on creating a more "readable hacker news" by experimenting with typefaces, colors and styles.

v2.3.5:

  - Support HN on https://

v2.3.4:

  -  Style fixes for header
  -  New font for titles
