It should be fairly straightforward to turn this into a browser addon, give users a choice and offload the people behind HN.


Or even easier to make a userscript: https://openuserjs.org/


  // ==UserScript==
  // @name        HN Avatars in 357 bytes
  // @description Annotated avatars on all HN comments.
  // @author      tomxor (https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=tomxor)
  // @namespace   https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30668137
  // @include     https://news.ycombinator.com/item*
  // @include     https://news.ycombinator.com/user*
  // @grant       none
  // @version     1.0.0
  // ==/UserScript==

  [js goes here]



What is a user script?


A JavaScript script injected into a website by the user (as opposed to the website).


I see what you did there ;)


Could we just add it to HN Special? https://github.com/gabrielecirulli/hn-special


Doesn't work on FF does it?
