Summary
Having created hn.lincolnh0.com, it has become increasingly annoying to me when I click on a link that takes me back to the original website at https://news.ycombinator.com/.
With that said, I wrote a simple Chrome extension that only works on both these URLs, and replaces every <a> that points to the original address with hn.lncln.io.
The single challenge with this is finding the right Javascript event listener, as content is dynamically loaded with React.
Using mutation observer, I was able to achieve said behaviour as the observer triggers my replacement code when new content is injected into the document.
