Discussion Why aren't HN comments collapsible? I find it difficult to read comments on HN, and I think this mostly comes from the inability to collapse comments.1) The top comment on a post gets hugely inflated with discussion.2) Since scores aren't shown, I'm not sure what comments have value, so I tend to not read anything besides the first few comments.Given that most other sites I have visited have this ability, I wonder if it was a conscious design decision, and why? 5 points coryfklein 13 years ago 10 comments
