May I ask why were you surprised? Which other website has this feature?
- pbhjpbhj 3y agoThis sort of thing is a feature I often feel is missing, sites have "last week", "last month", etc., and you can see what stories have been top. But you can't then go back to last month and see what the top 'stories' for the preceding month were.
- odensc 3y agoNot exactly the same, but in the same vein, Reddit has a "Random" button that takes you to a random subreddit. Google has "I'm Feeling Lucky" which gives you a random search. A "random" button seems like a relatively common little easter egg.
