Hello HN!

I've noticed lately that I tend to jump into the comment section on hacker news and reddit before reading the associated article. To prevent this, I wrote ireadit, a browser extension that hides the comment section if the article link has not been viewed. This is my first time writing an extension, so I am open to any and all comments or feedback.

It can currently be installed manually. The option to download from browser stores is coming soon.

You can check out a short video linked in the README.md that demonstrates how it functions.

I just made an app for hacker news and think I may implement this option if that is okay with you.
