Post Description

I created a plugin for LiveComment to make working with the "Who Is Hiring?" threads easier and more convenient. I've wanted to implement this idea for a long time, ever since I created LiveComment in 2014. Feel free to clone, modify and extend both LiveComment and this plugin, then let's open a PR
