Show HN: Highlight all “1 point” news

4 points by fswwi 4 years ago | 6 comments

It seems nobody pays attention to 1 point news here and news from the main page are initially upvoted by bots (to get to there). So I've written a short userscript for this site to highlight all "1 point" entries:

    [...document.querySelectorAll(".score")].filter(x => x.innerText == "1 point").map(x => x.closest("tr").previousSibling.querySelector(".storylink")).forEach(x => x.style.backgroundColor = "#FF9")

Can you show some examples of bot manipulation?

Nah. It's just a nerdsniping[1] article. It will get a ton of votes. Also, many good articles don't get a lot of comments.
