Is there a way to subscribe to a convo via email or RSS, or do you just constantly have to come back to check for replies?
There's not really a good way. You just check back every so often, and even then, there's not a good way to view the comments that have been newly added. This has been discussed here before, but HN deliberately tries to keep things simple, so I wouldn't bet on this feature being added anytime soon.
- aditya 18y agoThere is that 'threads' link (http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=<userid> http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=<userid>) on the top menu which takes you to your latest comment threads, works pretty well for me. :) No way to get this into email/RSS, though.
- brianmckenzie 18y agoYeah, the threads link is also good in case someone comments on something that has already scrolled from the front page.
- aneesh 18y agoYep, that's pretty useful, but it only shows replies to your comments, and not other comments on the same article.
