No, please not SPOILER!
That tends to be hidden completely for old browsers, and not sure if also hindering page-search or archiving.
Perhaps something else - "code"? But that increases the size yet more, using ultrawide Courier-fonts.
Another...?
(That said, I'd be surprised if RT changes anything at all only for reading convenience)
But being a selfhelper, couldn't resist playing a bit now ;-)
Tweak-1:
This CSS filters all comments written by RT, then limits all single P-elements to a max height and if too long, shows a scrollbar:
body.ipsApp article.ipsComment div[data-quotedata*='roytam1'] div.cPost_contentWrap p{
max-height: 400px !important;
overflow-y: auto !important;
}
CSS-variations for example: remove author-requirement, or limit complete-comment height instead of single P-elements
Tweak-2:
This JAVASCRIPT (bookmarklet?) filters all comments written by RT, but (unlike above) takes the complete comment text. Then checks if the TEXT "- Bug " is contained more often than 8x. Only THOSE comments get limited with a scrollbar:
var c="body.ipsApp article.ipsComment div[data-quotedata*='roytam1']";
var j, el, lg0, lg2, x, LIST=document.querySelectorAll(c);
for (j=0; j < LIST.length; j++){
el=LIST[ j].querySelector("div[data-role='commentContent']");
lg0=el.textContent.length;
lg2=el.textContent.replace(/- Bug /gi, '').length;
x =(lg0 - lg2)/6;
if (x > 8) {
el.style.maxHeight='400px';
void(el.style.overflow='auto');
/* just for TESTING! Remove line: */
void(el.style.backgroundColor='yellow');
}}
JS-variations: remove author requirement, choose another max-height, choose another TEXT, choose another hits-limit
