There's also a Wikipedia version: https://www.modernwiki.app/ - tho now it just slightly redefines already modernized interface that was released months ago
I mostly use curl, much easier than such a painful app like a browser

How about Modern for Hacker News: https://www.modernhn.com/ - available for both Gecko and Chromium-based browsers. There's also a Wikipedia version: https://www.modernwiki.app/ - tho now it just slightly redefines already modernized interface that was released months ago
I personally just use Stylus and have a custom css for making things a bit more readable and user friendly.
There's also this extension that just refines a couple things: https://github.com/plibither8/refined-hacker-news

I was thinking something similar to alternative frontends for youtube which already exit.
