About Hacker News Reader - Filter and Save

Just a clean way to read Hacker News(Y Combinator). I made this to filter out noise from my feed and save posts for later. That's it. What it does: Block keywords: Hide posts about topics you're tired of seeing. Bookmark posts: Save stuff to read later. Switch views: Read Top, New, or Best stories. Privacy: No analytics. No tracking. No external database. Your blocklist and bookmarks are saved in your browser and that's it.
