Stack Overflow: collapse comments by default
Collapses comment threads under the question and answers, while clicking the "show" link still expands them.
Code to copy
/* Collapse all comment threads by default */
(function () {
function collapse() {
document.querySelectorAll('.comments').forEach(function (c) {
if (c.dataset.sofCollapsed) return;
c.dataset.sofCollapsed = '1';
var list = c.querySelector('.comments-list');
if (list) list.style.display = 'none';
});
document.querySelectorAll('.js-show-link.comments-link').forEach(function (link) {
link.addEventListener('click', function () {
var box = link.closest('.comments');
var list = box && box.querySelector('.comments-list');
if (list) list.style.display = '';
});
});
}

new MutationObserver(collapse).observe(document.body, { childList: true, subtree: true });
})();How to use this example
