This userscript for kbin enhances the comment section adjusting the layout and adding a line to the left of each comment and its replies that lets you collapse them. The design is inspired by some custom subreddit stylesheets, and new reddit surprisingly enough (you know what they say about broken clocks)

Personally, I think this is the best way to handle collapsing comments here's a screenshot.

If you don't have a userscript manager extension installed, you can install Tampermonkey, and then open the greasyfork link.

Sorry for triple posting, but just wanted to test this out real quick. The script seems to basically work, but I've found a couple issues; After my second post it showed the line only on the first post. The second post didn't get a collapse line until I collapsed/uncollapsed the first post.
Second, when I edited a comment it removed the collapse line from that post until I edited a second time. This doesn't seem to be consistent.
Third, and this might just be on my end, at some point while editing the posts, the second post is now on the far right of the comments window, instead of just slightly to the right of its parent comment.

I don't think these issues will be a huge deal, and I'm still looking forward to using this. Thanks for making it!

EDIT: Should also mention I'm on Firefox as well, incase that matters.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll see what I can do about fixing those issues. I think I might have partially fixed the first one, but the new comment isn't nesting properly.

Edit: this is a test to see if editing is working
Edit 2: my change didn't fix that, I'm on it
