Extension Usage Instructions

                        Do you ever wish you could filter Hacker News to avoid the noise?

This extension will filter stories from domains that - per november 2015 - had more than than 2500 submitted stories but less than 40% had more than 3 votes. Domains with usergenerated content (as github.com or youtube.com) are not included.

Is this censoring? 
- No, this is a way of limiting domains with a high amount of noise. 

Will it hide a really interesting story?
- Yes, but any story that is number 1 will never be filtered (so if it's really good, you will still see it)

How can I see if anything is being filtered?
The sequence of numbers at the left side will skip the order of natural numbers.

I really want to see what is being filtered?
Open the page in incognito mode to avoid filtering anything. 

Can I alter the list of domains being filtered?
- Not right now, but that is where I want to go with this plugin. Please help out making the code better at https://github.com/mathiasrw/no-noise-hacker-news
