Poll: How do you consume HN?

I click through for comments, and find the front-page ordering pretty awful (people tend to vote up the less technical articles more, probably since there's a lower barrier to entry; also, articles in the same genre as the recent influx of stories about Color/etc., which I couldn't care less about, tend to get voted up a lot). And as someone else mentioned, it doesn't mark stories as read, which is a Big Deal for me.

Yeah makes sense. It doesn't bother you, clicking back and forth?

Nope. I go through in Reader and open up all of the interesting looking stories' comment pages at once, then go through those tabs afterwards.

Are there sometimes threads you want to return to later?

Sometimes. If so, I leave the tab open (or stick it in my toread folder). Also, I periodically check my threads to see if any were updated/replied to.
