A List of Hacker News's Undocumented Features and Behaviors (2018-20)

frankly it's ridiculous that there's a karma limit on a client-side cosmetic feature. I understand one can write a custom CSS rule for this, but if it's already built into the website....

It's added flavour, I think. Not every website has to be intuitive or hand people things on a silver platter.

Unless you have to earn it, you won’t appreciate it.

Nice things shouldn't be available for throwaways or sock puppet accounts.

    [bgcolor="#ff6600"] {
      background: #008 !important;    
    }

    body > center > table > tbody > tr:first-child > td {
      background: #008 !important;
    }

Here's some CSS rules if you want to change it yourself instead of relying on an obviously poor design choice.
