  • I have been considering adding labels/filters based on sentiment analysis to my HN reader. I wonder if your classifier-based method would be more effective.

    I added filters that blur posts from new HN accounts based on age/karma thresholds (as suggested by another HN user). However, instead collapsing, I just blurred them. This allows quickly peeking via hover. My reader also highlights posts with higher points/comments, and those orange highlights survive the blurring.
