The combination of this being a new feature and the "Show HN" posts now having a dedicated page simply gave them a big boost in exposure.
I doubt it has anything to do with the algorithms. I will, however, be interested to see how things settle once it is no longer a NEW feature.
- personlurking 12y agoWith dedicated pages, it's giving the appearance of "subreddits" in a way. What I'd really like to see in those terms: 1. News 2. Technical 3. Show HN 4. Ask HN (maybe)
- nitrogen 12y agoThere is already /ask, which shows stories that don't have a URL.
- dang 12y agoThis is exactly right. And we'll wait for things to settle before making any changes.
