I've started going to the "new" section for HN instead of the front page to catch the news before it's flagged.

I've started going to the "new" section for HN instead of the front page to catch the news before it's flagged.
- minimaxir 2y agoI read /new more often than the main page nowadays (not just due to flags on political stories, but it does give a better picture of what's relevant rather than the survivorship bias of the front page)
- BJones12 2y agoMaybe you should try reading a mainstream news site or news aggregator instead
- echoangle 2y agoIs there a good one with comments for discussion? Closest thing I can think of is reddit and you know how that is with politics.

- jauntywundrkind 2y agoI have long loved https://hckrnews.com https://hckrnews.com for the chronological timeline, but the trail of [dead] across the timeline has been jaw dropping & horrifying to see & so so visible here. A top tier concern of our age is disinformation & propoganda. The lies are absurd & out of control. But denial of information is also a huge issue, and the ability of a couple few to suppress & deny here is remarkable. I'm so glad there's this timeline based site, showing what's really happening & the many many things denied.
- GeoAtreides 2y agoI recommend: https://hn.algolia.com/ https://hn.algolia.com/ set for top stories for the last 24 hours it's the best homepage for HN, shows all stories, flagged and flamed stories too
- archagon 2y agoI treat http://news.ycombinator.com/active http://news.ycombinator.com/active as the real front page. Flagged discussions show up there.
