OT, but is anyone else's HN homepage like, super stale? Most of the posts are from 12+ hours ago, some from more than a day.
Edit: 5/30 less than 12 hours old, 16/30 more than 20 hours old.
- zilti 3y agoI suppose they still have some issues, HN was down for a few hours today.
- TylerE 3y agoIronically, I didn't notice that because MY internet was down, due to heavy winds/rain from the big storm yesterday.
- SketchySeaBeast 3y agoMine as well. They had some outages today, I wonder if there's trouble afoot.
- dang 3y agoYes, it's related. Sorry. If you guys suggest (or submit!) some good submissions and let me know what they are, I can put them in the second-chance pool, which will accelerate the refreshing of the front page.
- hristov 3y agoIt looks to me like HN has been in a massive censorship mode in order to remove ongoing stories about the Bitcoin ETF, the SEC and the Twitter/X hack of the SEC's account. That story was on the top by far yesterday and then it suspiciously disappeared, after the comments took a very decidedly (and very deservingly, in my opinion) anti-Muskian bent. Since then there has been no story about the bitcoin ETF on the front page of HN even though it is a very important time for bitcoin (the deadline for bitcoin etf inclusion is today) and HN loves talking about bitcoin. So there is your answer.
- dang 3y agoThat has zero to do with this. (Btw HN has plenty of "anti-Muskian bent". A glut in fact! So I'm a bit mystified how that, of all things, would trigger suspicion)
