It's a little early to say, but someone posted it on r/InternetIsBeautiful last month and it had about 75K visitors over two days. It looks like the front page of HN will be just a fraction (20%?) of that traffic.
Reddit is truly massive, but I appreciate the HN discussions more.
- modeless 5y agoYou're right, I went and looked up my stats and HN doesn't seem as large as I thought. My biggest traffic days have been from Facebook. When Starlink is visible over a major city, I sometimes get a bump in traffic from people sharing the site. I was skeptical at first that adding social share buttons was important, but I think it actually has driven quite a bit of traffic. And I've gotten a ton of twitter followers which is cool. Though they don't actually care about what I tweet about, it's just nice to have a big number on my profile.
