- smt88 10y agoI disagree. I'd never use this feature, and it's extremely well-covered territory at the browser/device level (e.g. the Pocket app). I believe HN should be re-designed to be more readable/accessible, but I'm staunchly against adding features that can be implemented elsewhere (browser, separate app, RSS reader, etc.). We're supposed to be hackers, after all -- we can roll our own features.
- thecolorblue 10y agoCouldn't you make the same argument for email and any messaging app?
- smt88 10y agoYes, and I will. Email protocols and servers don't support many of the extra features that people use. Those things are added as extra layers by the client, like Gmail or Outlook. Email doesn't inherently have stars, to-dos, calendar invites, etc. I'm advocating for the same thing on HN. If you want features, add them to your client (browser, app that consumes the HN API, etc.)
