Last I checked, HN has published it's algorithm. Probably out of date now I suppose, but it proves the premise. Slashdot also used to.

- krapp 2y agoHacker News doesn't publish anything. It's based on Arc Forum, but YCombinator has made numerous undocumented changes and it may as well be a proprietary fork at this point. Also a part of HN's "algorithm" is literally the mods manually adjusting things, and you can't publish that.
- cortesoft 2y agoThe comment I replied to said that the only algorithm should be sorted by reverse post date, so it doesn't matter that the algorithm is published or not.
