A comment on Reddit's website uses DRM for fingerprinting.

That's why I'm so happy that HN stayed roughly the same : fastest UI in the west, respectable community, and non-profit. Just like Wikipedia and Craigslist.

I wish we had an equivalent for every big website.

Still wouldn't mind some basic formatting options in comments like bullet lists and code though.

The equivalent for websites is probably reader mode supported in various browsers or addons, but that too is probably limited. Pretty sure it doesn't work for Reddit, but for Reddit there may be browser addons that clean up the interface by a lot.

There is a pretty popular one for Reddit, yes -- it's called Reddit Enhancement Suite, adds a ton of features.

Totally agree. This is also why I keep donating to Wikipedia.
