Highlighting new comments doesn't work anymore.. when it worked it was a great extension!

The new comment highlighting functionality recently broke (within the past day or so). EDIT 2016-07-13: The new comment highlighting works again. However, now there are two fold buttons due to the recent addition of a fold button to the default Hacker News site.
