Why is there no default option to sort by new submissions within a post?
Doesn't seem to facilitate discussion. Ol site, yadayda but not too hard to implement, so what's the rational?
I know there are custom plugins one could get.
Cheers.
- brudgers 2y agoI don't know the rationale. One guess is that sorting by "new" would provide more oxygen to heated commentors with a desire to express a strong opinion against all comers. Or in general, making things a little harder is a feature not a bug that makes HN HN. I could be wrong. Good luck.
