- Better formatting for text: (1) bullet points (2) markdown-like links (3) Slightly different background for code.
- More "sub-reddits". We already have Ask/Show HN. We probably can add a couple more to keep everything organized.
- Option to auto-collapse comments threads deeper than X levels by default. When they are all open by default like today, only the top comment and its children get more of the eyeballs.
The formatting of text is a pain that I haven't figured out a good solution to. To do it right, I'd have to convert the existing HTML to markdown, then convert back to HTML.
It would be nice if HN just put the unstyled text in the page and then used JS to render it, but I'm sure there would be complaints about that too.
