Another HN terminal client with no differentiation from hn-tui or hackernews-tui.
Strengths
- •Color-coded comment threads by indentation depth improves readability
- •Global read history persists across directories in ~/.hn-history.json
- •10-second API timeout prevents TUI freezes on network issues
Weaknesses
- •1 star and 12 commits means this is a weekend project, not maintained tool
- •README in German limits audience for an English-language community client
