Hacker News discussion
Hacker News discussion is a free Chrome extension developed by Adam Sapek. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically listed as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This extension displays an icon that links to comments on Hacker News for the current page you are browsing.
The main feature of this extension is that it only displays the icon for pages that have been discussed on Hacker News. This allows users to easily access and participate in discussions related to the page they are currently viewing.
Hacker News discussion also provides convenient keyboard shortcuts for quick access to the comments. By pressing Ctrl+Y, you can open the comments in a new tab, while Alt+Y opens the comments in the current tab.
It is important to note that this extension does not collect any data. However, the URLs of the pages you visit will be sent over https to HNSearch, which is hosted by a YC company called Algolia. It is worth mentioning that the extension does not have permission to access any data on the websites you visit, ensuring your privacy and security.
With Hacker News discussion, users can easily stay connected to the Hacker News community and engage in discussions relevant to the webpages they are browsing, all within the Chrome browser.
