Up/down votes should be added to each individual color's own page, ie https://colornames.org/color/f9cdcb Edit: I added this suggestion through their used feedback service.
But there are the up/downvote buttons already?

The idea behind is that if we let the computer pre-parse the text for us, it should incur less mental fatigue, and help visualize the structure of sentences therefore improving our reading comprehension.

I have been searching for something like this for years! Wish it wasn't Firefox-only :( What would it take to get it ported to a better browser? Here's my crack at coloring or syntax-highlighting the parts of english speech for easier analysis, but mine was a manual process: https://github.com/tomhodgins/bil

#133Earlier quoted context omitted.
If it's 3 non-repeating unordered words, the minimum vocabulary will need to be 256*3 = 768. Realistically you'll need an order of magnitude larger. That's a pretty large vocabulary.

#137Added "Hacker News Orange" to the list: https://colornames.org/color/ff6500 I'm struggling to figure out if this is a serious attempt, though.
HN should allow changing of color of top bar via a get parameter. It would be awesome.
Optional: Then write a bookmarklet, that displays a color-picker, and reloads the tab with the changed querystring variable.
(HN web server admin might get some "scary" log file entries though, regarding an "unusual" additional QS variable)
