I can only think of two things that I really would like HN to implement:

1. Dark mode

2. Two-factor authentication for better account security

Apart from that (and maybe a better API to help with third-party apps), HN is perfect. The minimal (should I say retro?) UI just adds to the charm of the site. Consider it repellent for those who aren't ready for the HN atmosphere.



> 1. Dark mode

Ublock Origin filters are great workaround

just update a few lines:

# Text

news.ycombinator.com##.c00:style(color: #fafafa !important)

# Inputs

news.ycombinator.com##input[type="text"], input[type="url"], textarea :style(background-color: inherit; border: 1px solid #d4d4d4; color: #000000 !important)


I'm already using Dark Reader. It'd just be nice to have an official dark theme.
