You won't show up unless your site is listed in this manually curated CSV file: https://github.com/mtlynch/hn-popularity-contest-data/blob/master/data/domains-meta.csv https://github.com/mtlynch/hn-popularity-contest-data/blob/m...
- ArcHound 10mo agoThank you for the reply, I'll go and make a PR.
- mtlynch 10mo ago>You won't show up unless your site is listed in this manually curated CSV Correction: you'll show up even if you're not in the CSV. The CSV just populates metadata for your entry.
- simonw 10mo agoHow do you filter out the non-blog content? I assume you had an allow-list of known personal blogs.
- mtlynch 10mo agoEverything is default included, and I have a long list of not-blog domains that are excluded.[0] Plus, I exclude the Alexa top 500. There are lots of not-blogs still in the dataset, but I just exclude them when I come across them in popular views. But I'm sure if you dig through positions 101-5000 you'll find lots of domains that don't match my official criteria for a blog. https://github.com/mtlynch/hn-popularity-contest-data/blob/master/data/excludes.txt https://github.com/mtlynch/hn-popularity-contest-data/blob/m...
