Split for Hacker News Autor: 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.
