Split for Hacker News door Maxim Topciu

Reading an article and wondering what Hacker News thinks? In the popup, Split for Hacker News finds exact discussions for the page you are on; nothing opens until you choose a result.

• Select a result in the popup to open its Hacker News comments.
• Exact URL matching — no fuzzy guesses, duplicates are listed as alternatives.
• Or open the discussion in the browser side panel. To embed the real Hacker News page, Split temporarily removes framing headers from Hacker News sub-frame responses only while a panel is open.
• Optional: while the side panel is already open, follow active tabs automatically; off by default, or use Check this tab once. It never opens or rearranges tabs, and may keep up to three recent discussions alive for faster return and best-effort scroll position.
• Open in Split in the link right-click menu: the link opens in the current tab and its Hacker News discussion opens in the side panel.
• Optional toolbar badge with the comment count, off by default.
• Free. No telemetry or accounts. Lookups send only eligible public page or selected-link URLs and an optional canonical URL to Algolia's public Hacker News Search API — never article text or other content. Narrow, documented permissions.
