The problem is that the collapse is on the right. It used to be this way on Reddit too, but after users complained they moved it to the left. Right now it's hard to collapse a series of top level comments in a row since you have to keep moving the mouse around a lot. Feature request to move the collapse to the left side, like on reddit?
For me it's on both sides: https://i.imgur.com/vTPD63G.png One of those is because of a chrome extension. I guess just get the extension. :)
Love the changes and thanks for the un-feature. My only wish now is making the up / down arrows bigger, but the un might just make that a moot point. Is this still written in Arc?
Still, the most urgently needed feature is missing: telling me which comments I haven't seen, yet. It's a constant nuisance in longer threads. Really, this is much more vital than just about every feature you've introduced over the last months.

Dang those are some nice features! :-) I really really love the collapse feature. Does the collapse persist across new comments being added or are those not collapsed? We'll have to see. And final thought on the stories/submissions vs comments the challenge is that comment is both a verb and a noun, you comment, and you can read a comment. Whereas stories is always a noun. Submission is the correct name for something…
yeah collapse is nice, but curious what will happen on collapsed thread which is added to... i'm also confused, wasn't there already a "saved" section where upvoted items went previously? seems like all which was done was renamed a few items (and added the favorite which allows marking for later, without giving a vote)

The new 'favorites' list is for highlighting the best stories and comments you see on HN. That list is shared, because want people to browse each other's favorites. The idea is to help disseminate more of the amazing content that people post to Hacker News, much (most?) of which is only seen by a few readers. And I hope that for dedicated HN users it will be fun to curate your own list of highlights, plus see what others have on theirs.
Also if the most-favorited stories and comments turn out to be interesting, we'll publish those lists.
All good stuff. The HackerNews Enhancement Suite plugin for Chrome really borks the page the now! http://imgur.com/CXaHIqO
Hopefully, the extension will be updated soon.
