Post Description

Hey HN,

If you're like me and always find yourself scanning the HN frontpage for new stories only to skim stories you've seen before, this extension shows you at a glance new stories, story trends, allows you to "dim" stories manually or based on keywords, and more.

Hope you find it useful.
