Hey all, I made a Firefox extension (signed by Mozilla) specifically to add Show/Hide Child Comments functionality similar to how RES had it (where the parent comment is still visible).
It’s not very useful, but I could use some feedback on tightening up the Javascript. I’m not a JS beginner, but I know I can do better, so any tips are welcome!
EDIT: Also, if anyone has any suggestions for the extension, I’m open to those as well.
An extension is a great way for users to try features before companies implement them.
I have huge respect for games that enable modding, then - respectfully - incorporate mod QoL features into the main game. It shows they are listening to the community.
An extension is actually a great way to propose a feature, allow users to try it, and if it’s popular then you have a great case for devs to implement it.
And I wish that Reddit had spent time & money implementing RES features natively. It was basically a “Reddit but useable” feature list.
