(2023-07-27) Starlord Stavanger: I can't believe how late to this game I am! Been on Reddit like 8 years, always used "new" Reddit for years, but switched to "old" Reddit and with the help of this amazing little extension, it makes using the comments section on old Reddit so much more enjoyable and I just love the colors of the retro one. Well done mate! I don't know if this extension is still updated by the maintainer or not, but fingers crossed this just keeps on working! 5 out of 5 stars.

(2017-07-30) Jon Aseltine: Update2: Awesome! Back to 5 stars, where it should be. Update: the new version is a step in the wrong direction. The line colors were great for tying things together *without* collapsing. Now that everything is the same ugly yellow you can't see relationships between comments as easily. I've been using this extension forever and never rated it. Combine with RES and experience reddit as it should be.

(2017-07-24) Jose Delgado: Love the app and the new wider bar is way better since the line was way too thin and difficult too click on. Since the dev is very receptive to new ideas please make the minimalist option with different colors too. Great work!

(2017-07-21) Nandish Hegde: Indispensable if you use Reddit a lot. Dev is very receptive and the option to stick with the color-coded lines is appreciated.

(2015-09-30) Konporer W: its exactly what i wanted but theres issues, when you collapse a comment, its impossible to reopen it again becasue the + icon is blocked by the collapse line of other comments , the + icon is too small any way. example subre: https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/

(2015-09-28) Nicholas Van Eck: I really like it but noticed that the lines just don't appear on certain subs. Is it possible that it would be disabled on some subreddits?
