I guess an answer would be to call it "old", given its placement next to "new" (and the fact that it lets you browse old stories).

  or "past".

    Ok, we'll go with that for now. I rejected it originally because there are already 'past' links on thread pages that point to HN Search, but perhaps those meanings are compatible.

      I think it works well. The context seems clear to me, since the top text is time-based.

      Thanks for the reordering also.

    Since it looks up a specific day, how about “pastdays”.

      I think they’re trying to keep each nav item a single word.

        “Days”?

          I like it. But it seems to default to today's date with options to readily explore "this date in history." So I will suggest: Date Alternately, I will suggest Top since it defaults to Stories from (today's date), ordered by how long they were on the front page. Hopefully if enough people toss out suggestions, one will turn out to be a real improvement over more. Maybe Explore?

    I like both of these options (more than "more")
    • dmix 8y ago
      It’s neither past nor old but rather it shows the full current day first. Rather top posted grouped by day. So maybe a new ‘top’ IMO.

        Or call it 'archive' may be!
        • arendtio 8y ago
          or 'history' ;-)

  I think it’s a perfect opportunity to hackerishly use "car | cdr" or "head | tail"
