I made another one, where I curate good articles from Wikipedia, their respective discussions on HN and structure them into topics.

For example the most popular Wikipedia articles on HN: https://www.mostdiscussed.com/popular

And the topics HN find interesting: https://www.mostdiscussed.com/popular/topics

These are great. Thanks for creating them!

I'm working on a userscript right now that colorizes the UI for added visibility around usernames and thread indents. It also adds some extra navigation tools.

I'll be sure to submit a pull request to this repo once it's ready.

Thanks for sharing.

Also consider doing a Show HN post.

I'd love to get statistics. Is there a simple way for me to check how my karma has evolved over time, my most like post or comment, who was the user who got the most karma points last year, month, week?

I like https://hnbadges.netlify.app/ but it is far from what I want.

For posts that wouldn't be hard as firebase has the data[0].

However for comments that's difficult as neither firebase[1], nor hackernews public[2] has scores. The data is only available when you are logged in directly on news.ycombinator.com. So, you could scrape it yourself.

To get your post karma over time just download your submissions[3] and plug it into excel.
