Only now I realized that I use https://hckrnews.com https://hckrnews.com for so many years that I have come to think of it as the actual HN front page. It's hard to imagine something better.
- andirk 8y agoDo you mean that we're not all typings news.ycombinator.com ? That's kind of tripping me out. And where is this new 'more' button?
- TeMPOraL 8y agoAre you? I'm just typing new<ret>. Or not even that; HN is often just CTRL+SHIFT+T away...
- a-wu 8y agoFor me just typing "n" suffices for autocomplete....maybe I should pay more attention to my habits.
- Fnoord 8y agoI type hack or hacker or hacker n (depending on other history). URL bar does the rest.
- empyrical 8y agoI personally use http://hackerne.ws http://hackerne.ws
- wilkystyle 8y agoYes! I love https://hckrnews.com https://hckrnews.com, and the ability to come back later in the day and catch up on anything that was on the front page, and not worry about missing out. I also echo the sentiment of being used to that site as the HN homepage.
- yread 8y agoLately, I have a feeling that hckrnews surfaces the wrong type of posts - stuff that quickly reaches 3 points. But it's often flamebait, clickbait or some useless drama. I often go back to the home page to find posts that don't appear on hckrnews but are quite interesting in a niche or need to be fully digested to appreciate. That said I also love hckrnews for checking what's new after a longer time
- zer 8y agoI use http://hn.premii.com/ http://hn.premii.com/ I believed it to be more popular but it seems no one has mentioned that site so far...
- benbristow 8y agoThe colour scheme is painful. Both on 'day' mode and night mode
- redsparrow 8y agoFor me the front page is the "last 24 hours" view on hn.algolia.com. https://hn.algolia.com/?query=&sort=byPopularity&prefix&page=0&dateRange=last24h&type=story https://hn.algolia.com/?query=&sort=byPopularity&prefix&page... It can also show the stories from arbitrary periods including single days like in the new "more" feature being discussed but it orders them by points rather than how long they were on the (real) front page.
