This is too funny. I wrote out a comment on the G+ article on the homepage that basically said something along the lines of "now don't go complaining about subdomains," but I didn't post it because I felt it wouldn't be necessary this time. Sure enough, you've proven me wrong.
Just mouse over the link. If you're on your mobile, hold your finger on the link until the modal pops up with more details. Hacker News...
Edit: I am pro-full-domain. I think it would be an excellent change, however...
It's such a trivial change in the code that I can't imagine pg hasn't thought this one through. With as many times as people have complained about it he has definitely heard this side of the argument already and it's not changed his mind so far. So why are we revisiting this? Is there a canonical 'this is why' for this feature that we can just point to and be done with it?
- sp332 15y agoIf HN shows the domain, it should at least be useful. Why do the work when I can have toe computer do it for me? HACKER News :)
- danking00 15y agoIf you could choose freely for no cost between, perhaps, the first subdomain appearing versus not, would you really opt for not? Mousing over the link seems like unnecessary work when subdomains could be added without sacrificing the readability of HN at all. Whether it's worth the time investment, I'm not sure. I can't imagine it would be too hard to grab the first subdomain from the link, but perhaps I'm ignoring some significant edge case.
