Hacker Newsy: a pretty Hacker News client
Here's another extension you may be interested in[0]. It allows total customization if you don't mind writing a bit of HTML, though it ships with some decent defaults. It's also not 1:1 feature complete with HN but it suits my needs just fine.

Why is text of sumissions in low-contrast grey on HN?
I had the same question and made a browser extension that addresses many of the complaints in this thread (poorly-positioned elements, sizing, dark mode): https://github.com/dan-lovelace/hacker-news-pro. It lets you completely rebuild the layout however you'd like and has some pre-made themes that do a decent job without writing one from scratch.

Show HN: I made a browser extension for building your own custom HN themes
Hi HN!
I’ve spent the last few weeks writing a browser extension that lets users write their own HN themes using Handlebars and CSS. It works by converting the current Hacker News page’s content into an object that is made available to the user-defined Handlebars templates. There is a built-in code editor that makes writing themes super easy and you can see changes in real-time. If you don’t want to write a theme from scratch, there are premade themes available or you may import one made by somebody else.
It is shipped with Bootstrap so you can get pretty far without needing to write a lot of custom CSS. Material icons are also included so your themes get iconography out of the box. Any theme can be toggled into dark mode with a single click.
It is open-sourced under the MIT license so feel free to use any of the code in the linked repo[0]. Additionally, I’ve put together a short demo video on YouTube[1]. If you decide to check it out, let me know of any feedback and please share any themes you create! I’d be happy to answer any questions.
