Hey I used it for a url starting with http:// and couldn't find the discussion on the same page but submitted to HN with https://. When you check, can you check for both options? - (2014-02-17, v:1.6) T.J. Barbour: Enable opening comments in new tab
It would be nice to allow an option or allow (CTRL|CMD)+CLICK to open the comments in another tab. Otherwise this is a pretty nice extension!
