Would the internet be healthier without 'like' counts? (2019)

I'm using the following stylesheet to hide scoring on HN:

    /* Hide score */

    /* Top bar */
    #hnmain>tbody>tr:nth-child(1)>td>table>tbody>tr>td:nth-child(3)>span {
      font-size: 0 !important;
    }

    #hnmain>tbody>tr:nth-child(1)>td>table>tbody>tr>td:nth-child(3)>span * {
      font-size: 10pt !important;
    }

    #hnmain>tbody>tr:nth-child(1)>td>table>tbody>tr>td:nth-child(3)>span>a:nth-child(1) {
      margin-right: 20px !important;
    }

    /* Main page and discussion page */
    #hnmain>tbody td.subtext span.score {
      display: none !important;
    }

    /* Profile page */
    #hnmain>tbody>tr:nth-child(3)>td>form>table>tbody>tr:nth-child(3) {
      display: none !important;
    }

    /* Threads page */
    #hnmain .comhead .score {
      display: none !important;
    }

It's hacky, but I have this since ~5 years and it has been quite stable.

It's not on the chrome store, but I have a dumb browser extension to enable/disable: https://github.com/dgellow/hn-no-pressure.

Or you could add a single line to uBlock Origin (in 'my Filters' )

news.ycombinator.com##.score

You got anything similar to keep downvoted comments from being discolored? It’s a bit of an accessibility issue for me.

    .c00, .c00 a:link { color:#000000; }
    .c5a, .c5a a:link, .c5a a:visited { color:#000000; }
    .c73, .c73 a:link, .c73 a:visited { color:#000000; }
    .c82, .c82 a:link, .c82 a:visited { color:#000000; }
    .c88, .c88 a:link, .c88 a:visited { color:#000000; }
    .c9c, .c9c a:link, .c9c a:visited { color:#000000; }
    .cae, .cae a:link, .cae a:visited { color:#000000; }
    .cbe, .cbe a:link, .cbe a:visited { color:#000000; }
    .cce, .cce a:link, .cce a:visited { color:#000000; }
    .cdd, .cdd a:link, .cdd a:visited { color:#000000; }

Whilst those class names can seem somewhat random, they actually refer to the original color names, so should be pretty stable for an override.
