- A userscript for Hacker News that displays account age (in days) and karma next to usernames.
- Configurable options include toggling age and karma display, and custom suffixes for each.
- Uses the Hacker News Firebase API to fetch user data.
- Supports multiple userscript managers like Greasemonkey, Tampermonkey, and Violentmonkey.
- Caches fetched user data to avoid redundant API calls.
- Formats numbers with commas for better readability (e.g., 13394 → '13,394').
- Displays account creation date as a tooltip on hover.
