This is an interesting discussion I would love to listen more to.
Pagination (this site) vs a long list of all the titles (Paul's actual site). Which is better user experience?
OP seems to suggest pagination for sites where new content is high value & old content is low value. Long list of titles where all content is equal.
- skydhash 4y agoIMO, pagination only makes sense when you want to save bandwidth and computation. Like, if each item has images, that need to be fetched. If there is pagination, I'd prefer the option to choose the number of items in the list.
- stared 4y agoIf it is text-only, I see no reason to do any pagination (except a cargo cult-like habit). In this case, no option is needed.

- _ache_ 4y agoI not sure there is much to say. Regular users will be interested in the most recent articles, seems fair to put them first. Curious users will be interested to found an article that they may like. No need to say that a description of an article (and associated metadata) is far better than just the title. And there is a search accessible in 1-click. Seems to me as a fair trade-off for every use case.
