Funny that searchyc.com was so necessary for so long, coming in at #54 and #68 (it seems it should be higher as these should be combined). Now it just redirects

Funny that searchyc.com was so necessary for so long, coming in at #54 and #68 (it seems it should be higher as these should be combined). Now it just redirects to a spam/ad website, but before HN had a search bar it was very useful. Also interesting that it contains at #55: https://news.ycombinator.com/best https://news.ycombinator.com/best But not the ostensibly more useful: https://news.ycombinator.com/active https://news.ycombinator.com/active The url "u.ly/73I" #63 is very interesting, its not seen almost anywhere else on the web (at least on Google), and is apparently spam, now, and when you click on mentions for that matter you get: > We found no comments matching u.ly/73I What's the deal with that one? Was it spam comments that all got removed? It may be since some of the others were spam, like this one: https://goo.gl/l5v0b https://goo.gl/l5v0b It's impressive how little spam spam (as opposed to submarines, this is where I link to PGs essay) is on HN.
