Ask HN: Any way to filter new comments on submissions?

4 pointsby aquajetalmost 5 years ago
Hello! Is there a way to sort comments in a reverse chronological order (even sub comments)? I see interesting discussions, but it's hard to come back 3 hours later and scan the comments for new comments.

I've wondered the same thing. Reddit's premium membership unlocks a "highlight comments since your last visit" mode which is great for re-visiting a thread as well. Though I'd be happy with plain chronological sorting as you mention.

Gnus has a plugin to do this. I suspect Gnus is a bridge too far for most, however.

Find a browser plugin to do it.
