BlindHN: Improved Accessibility for Hacker News
This extension streamlines navigation for screen readers by:
1 Setting the background of the Hacker News website to dark, and the text to white.
2 Centering and adding a highlight when the user hovers over a title.
3 Converting title links to h1 elements for a clear hierarchy.
4 Adding a dedicated right navbar for easy access to navigation options.
5 Adding aria-labels to describe images, titles, usernames, timestamps, and karma points.
