But what if everybody did that? How would any story get more than 1 vote? Somebody has to dig through the garbage to get the good stuff right?

- dfc 14y agoHow is this any different than an argument against the frontpage? What if everybody only read the front page? Addendum: (It seems tonight is be difficult night on HN. I really did not expect any responses to the rhetorical question above.) As it is I rarely read more than the first page of new stories. With a filter like this I would help curate the new stories and would contribute more to the curating process than I currently do.
- philh 14y agoThen new links would start appearing on the front page once the current content got sufficiently old. (To clarify: I am merely answering your question, not expressing an opinion.)
- lmm 14y agoI suspect going through a page of 1-point stories is a more valuable contribution than going through several pages of 2+-point stories.
