Ask HN: Similar to over?points=100 endpoint, is there one for comments?
I am reading this:
https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented/blob/master/README.md
> Filter Out Posts Below X Points: Want to catch-up on the best submissions over the last few days? Filter out all posts below a certain threshold with the over?points=100 URL parameter. Examples:
https://news.ycombinator.com/over?points=100
Is there a similar one for filtering out posts with less than X comments?
Context: I am the developer of HACK and some users requested this feature.

- busymom0 6y agodang, do you have an answer? Sorry to bother you.
- rajnathani 6y agoPoints for comments are hidden, so this obviously won’t be possible as one could infer the points each comment has by using such an endpoint repeatedly. So unless the comment points are revealed, this should likely not be a feature.
- busymom0 6y agoSorry, I think you misunderstood my request. I was asking for a way to get all posts which have more than X comments. For example, give me all posts which have more than 100 comments.
- rajnathani 6y agoSo sorry, I misread what you wrote. If you’re comfortable with HNRSS, it has support for this feature through “Activity Parameters”. https://hnrss.github.io/ https://hnrss.github.io/
