Four thoughts:

  1. Show the number of comments on posts from the front page.

  2. Add a favicon. I usually have at least 20 tabs open in Firefox at once, and favicons are invaluable navigation aids.

  3. I like the tree view because it allows direct comment, but a flat view would be helpful to catch new posts.

  4. Display the full text of a post in the RSS feed. I'm glad the feed shows the number of comments though.

One last suggestion: would it be possible to set personal time zones?

Good request. Reddit gets around this by only showing times like '21 mins ago' or '8 days ago'. We've made it show times and dates which are timezone dependent. Raised as issue 107.
