About this extension
This extension adds a colored bar to each news listing on Hacker News. The color is based on points, so it becomes easily detectable how popular a news was, even if it already lost a few places.

It is a repackage with only small modifications of <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hacker-news-colors/adailobllebnhioglgkmaioilhlkdden">the original</a> from Martin Lissmats for Chrome.
