Over on Hacker News, user godDLL created a really nice custom style sheet for the site.
Called Comfy-Helvetica, the stylesheet makes the Hacker News site look a little cleaner and more readable (at least to me) – comparison screenshot below:
godDLL published the user stylesheet as for Safari, but I’ve since moved onto Chrome and hadn’t previously had the desire to use a custom per-site user stylesheet, so I wasn’t quite sure how.
Here are the steps if anyone else needs them:
- Install the Chrome Extension Stylish
- From within the Chrome Menu’s click Window > Extensions
- Click ‘Options’ within the Stylish extension listing
- Click ‘Add New Style’
- Enter ‘ComfyHelvetica’ in the name field and check ‘Enabled’
- In the ‘Code’ block copy and paste the stylesheet from https://comfy-helvetica.jottit.com/user-css
- Click the ‘Specify’ button and switch the drop down to ‘URLs on the domain’ and enter ‘news.ycombinator.com’
- Click ‘Save’ and Enjoy
Your finished config should look like:
