Show HN: HNminus (HN with larger sites omitted)

• slater 6y ago
  It's an on-going concern and/or meme over on HackerNews that the larger/corporate sites are getting more and more front-page posts. This site lists the latest news items, but filters out the larger sites. Right now, the list contains the domains of the following organizations: Amazon, Apple, Blogspot, Bloomberg, CNBC, CNN, Foxnews, Github, Google, Googleblog, HBR, Lever, Medium, Microsoft, Nytimes, Politico, Reuters, SEC, SKY, Substack, Theverge, Twitter, VOX, Wired, Wordpress, WSJ, Youtube.

    not working... is it similar to http://hn.luap.info http://hn.luap.info ?
    • slater 6y ago
      Crap... it might be cos I just added a Letsencrypt cert? In any case, not similar. My site shows the HN RSS feed items, with the domains filtered out according to the list.

    Medium, substack, WordPress are just blogs I thought, largely by individuals. At least I use medium to blog. What's the reason for removing those? Or maybe the posts on hn from say medium only(mostly)come from big companies?

      Yeah, the list isn't perfect. Just seemed to me that the e.g. medium-hosted blogs that get good traction here were always the same ones.
