I’ve put up a bunch of stories, most get no traction. However on the weekend once in a while I get a message from HN that one of my stories is pretty interesting and I should repost it. While every other service relies completely on some algorithm, it’s good to see a place like HN where people are jumping in and trying to stabilize things.
- skinnymuch 6y agoWow interesting. I didn’t know that happens. Who contacts you and how?
- saagarjha 6y agoThe moderators email you, I think.
- prawn 6y agoOne email used 2017-2019 has the format: "We thought you might like to know that we put [HN link] in the second-chance pool, so it will get a random placement on the front page sometime in the next 24 hours." Another I got a few times in 2015 starts: "[link] looks good, but didn't get much attention. Would you care to repost it? You can do so here: [link]." Former might be a newer version of the latter, going by email dates.
