> How does ranking work?
Great question, it's something I'd love to know more about as well.
- aspenmayer 6y agoIt would be great if that was native HN functionality. Why isn't it? It seems like it would only help, and how hard could it be?
- 1f60c 6y agoThey easily could (I think it would take the average HN user no more than a couple of hours to implement this functionality), but they won't, because they're very reluctant to make changes. This is also why HN still looks like a site from the 90s, instead of New Reddit (thank God).
- aspenmayer 6y agoIt’s not all bad. We still have HN as it is now. Status quo is its own kind of success. HN is essentially feature complete, so I don’t blame them for not trying to fix what ain’t broke.
