Re:Show HN: Using flamegraphs to read big HN threads by bohrious on Monday January 11, 2021 @11:00AM (#25730669)
Beautiful work!!

I would use this every day as a browser extension for HN/reddit. the vertical minimap would probably be the ideal implementation.

Fly-to navigation for narrowing scope makes sense. IMO, a complete feature-set would still include something like ctrl-scroll for vertical expand and shift-scroll for horizontal expand.

Realistically, maybe, for minimap-on-focus: "a"+"scroll": zoom "s"+"scroll": expand-vertical "d"+"scroll": expand-horizontal

For now, here is a bookmark that you can click when in a HN post. It will show the flame graph of the post.

javascript:location.href="https://trungdq88.github.io/hn-big-threads/#" + location.href.split('item?id=')[1]
