New here. How do you collapse comments in Hacker news threads?

2 points by yasky 10y ago ↗ HN

How do you collapse comments on Hacker News? I read a comment which I want to get past, but if it has 3 pages of responses, I have to scroll through them all. I often just get to frustrated and leave the thread after reading the top 2 or 3 comments if the discussions is very active. Is there a way to collaps comments?

The site is fairly minimal, and doesn't support comment collapsing. If you are using Chrome then you could install the Hacker News Collapsible Comments extension [1].
