I went and used claude a few months ago to resurrect the work on HNES and add more quality of life improvements, formatting, collapsing. All of the work done is out in the open and free for anyone to grab and modify.
This isn't a direct solution, but here is a HN mirror with dark mode support: https://hnmirror.com/
Use it if you like it ;)

Thanks for the suggestion.
Just bought and installed it as an iOS extension :) All themes and all custom themes remove the upvote button. Does it do the same for you?

Not OP, but I use DarkReader and Noir and it doesn't remove/hide the upvote button for me on either. I do have color filters enabled in accessibility on iOS, though.

you can modify chrome flags to force sites into dark mode

I have found that Dark Reader works much better than this.
(I use Firefox generally, but my employer forces Chrome for many work tasks, and is also very concerned about data security from 3rd party extensions, so Dark Reader is not readily accessible. I use Dark Reader with Firefox at home, and find that it much more frequently has a reasonable result. Another issue with teh Chrome flag is that it is inconvenient to toggle when encountering such a broken website, or when you want light mode.)
