#2I put together a custom CSS for HackerNews to make it little easier to read discussions. I know that there are some available but this is modeled after Readability bookmarklet and the code is available at:
https://github.com/jorde/readable-hn
It's not perfect so feel free to fork and submit patches (or create variants with your own font preferences).

I guess that could be done easily by injecting JS. I have to take a look at it later (not high priority as fonts are adjusted to my personal preferences already :)

It looks very nice. Would you port it to greasemonkey script so that it can work on Firefox.

Just submitted the app in the Chrome Store. Here is the HN link: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2410195
Will do a port for Safari and Firefox soon! Hope you guys like it!

#9I actually think the colours and fonts on Hacker News is pretty good.
The only big design problem with Hacker News is the measure (width of the text blocks), which sizes according to the browser. Resizing measure without resizing font-size is just crazy IMHO. Actually, adding a max-width to Hacker News wrapper (which oddly enough seems to be a table) would go a long way.
(I know I should stop complaining, and start building an extension myself.)

#10I prefer the flexibility of Stylebot (on Chrome, or Stylish in firefox).
Right now the style I have applied is this one: http://stylebot.me/styles/223
I would like to do something with the comments tree, but since they are not nested but padded its not possible to show a hierarchy on them :S
It would be nice to see other peoples styles to take ideas :D
