• Most promoted and blocked domains among Kagi Search users

  Comments Owl for Hacker News [1] adds a mute button to comments and user profiles which lets you do this. If you want to roll a quick version of your own, once you've identified rows containing comments you want to block, you need to hide all subsequent rows which have a higher indent. I see there's now an "indent" attribute in the DOM which would make this even easier. [1] - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• The UI of Hacker News Is Perfect

  Definitely not perfect. The default "collapse comment" buttons being right-aligned is pure insanity, IMO. They should be left-aligned so they're all in line with each other as you scroll down the page, so you barely have to move your mouse. Fortunately this extension[1] takes care of that.

• Ask HN: How do you keep up with replies to comment threads on HN?

  For keeping track of replies to my own comments, as previously mentioned there's the threads link at the top of the page, as well as https://hnreplies.com/ and https://hnnotify.xyz/. You can also use https://hnrss.github.io/ or http://hnapp.com/ to make RSS feeds of various types. If there's a post that is particularly interesting and you want to be able to keep abreast of new comments in it, I've found the HN... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Ask HN: How do you use HN?

  >Do you use browser plugins or user scripts? https://github.com/insin/hn-comments-owl I've also been writing a Godot app for HN off an on for a while now. It isn't ready for prime time but here's what it looks like[0]. >Also, what are your habits around HN? I tend to lurk the new comments page.

• 'You have blood on your hands', US senator tells Zuckerberg [video]

  Sometimes I still use https://millionshort.com/ for filtering out those crap tier sites; web site search engine still means finding useful webpages - I hope the AI search engines do recognize that as a target to list actual useful sites vs the 1-summary-to-rule-them-all. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Looks like millionshort is back

  After getting a 503 from every search for months, it would appear https://millionshort.com is back online and going to a paid model. If you get the same experience as I, you'll be offered a login/register page when attempting a search. I've found it to be a very helpful resource and am glad there's life there. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Most promoted and blocked domains among Kagi Search users

  Kagi search is brilliant in this aspect. There used to be a similar service [0] not too long ago that blocked many spam sites from the search results. [0] http://millionshort.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Cory Doctorow: Platform Capitalism and the Curse of “Enshittification” [audio]

  Https://millionshort.com/ Then there's neocities, weird subreddits, 4chan, niche forums still running on phpBB discussing all kinds of stuff. You seem to expect that niche communities should've scaled with the rest of the internet. Like, back then, there were a few million people online. Now it's billions, but the few millions still online in their niches aren't interesting enough for you. Why? - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
