True, but I think the point I am trying to make is that amybe YC could start curating this content somehow to give those easily-drowned-out articles a visibility bump.
- jermaustin1 1mo agoThey already do this. It's called the "second chance" pile. You will get an email saying that your submission didn't get the love they felt it should, and will add it to a list of submissions that get submitted to the front page, to see if the community agrees.
- cromka 1mo agoFair, but I think that's only for "Show HN" stuff?
- jermaustin1 1mo agoNot in my experience. Multiple submissions (non Show HN) of mine have been second chanced. I can't be certain, but I don't think any of my Shows have been... I guess that says more about the content I create than the content I share.
- cromka 1mo agoFair, didn't know that. But that proves some editing is in place, it could be a bit more active, perhaps.
- mschuster91 1mo agoNope. If you email hn@ycombinator.com with the subject "second chance pool" and it is not your submission, there is a very high chance one of the lovely mods will take the submission and second-chance it. Often enough, they even email the original authors and submissions about it if it is a really good submission!
