If the issue is posts that drop off the front page before they are seen, you might like using Wayne Larsen's https://hckrnews.com https://hckrnews.com as an interface. It gives you a chronological list of all posts that get enough votes to break out of "new".
- AnonC 4y agoI use hckrnews as the main entry point for browsing HN, it I’ve noticed that hckrnews isn’t adequate because it relies again on the voting patterns of HN users. And most HN users would be voting for the ones already trending on the first and second pages. It’s the small (my guess) user base that browses through New almost all the time and upvotes or flags posts that’s doing the bulk of the work in surfacing things for others.
