I tend to agree and solved this for myself by building a small, self-hosted service that auto-hides Hacker News stories by title keyword/regex, site, or user. That way you can have more control over auto-curating your Hacker News page, instead of having to invest time in a whole new community. If you have a Raspberry Pi or small VM somewhere, consider giving it a try!

- tomglynch 7y agoThis really sounds like a browser extension would be easier to implement.
- barrowclift 7y agoYes and no; if it was a browser extension that would limit the functionality to browsers that support extensions, and half of my browsing is done on Safari on iOS. This is the only option that covers my browsing in all cases.
- _rpd 7y agoI'll also suggest http://hckrnews.com/ http://hckrnews.com/ which helped me tremendously.
- newscracker 7y agoI always start looking at HN through hckrnews to reduce clutter. But I also check HN directly after this so that I don’t miss something (more so when I’m just generally browsing around).
- mellosouls 7y agoThis looks useful but is very limited on a browser with JavaScript disabled.
