Idea for a new tool

Drop a Mastodon or HN URL on a window, and it constructs a more dense 2D graphical layout for a thread.

  • Separate card for each comment.
  • Ideal readable width per card.
  • Short arrows from comments to their replies.
  • Keyboard shortcuts to pan along semantically to sibling or child.

Side-effects:

  • It needs the network, obviously.
  • Zero contact with file-system.

Inspirations:
