How is that official? I thought that was Algolia's API, not YC's
- e15ctr0n 12y agoAlgolia is a YC company and built the API for YC, which is as official as it gets.
- Alupis 12y agowould certainly be a lot less confusing if the api was actually hosted on the same domain. as-in: news.ycombinator.com/api or something... When I search for "news.ycombinator api" I get a bunch of irrelevant or very outdated links... https://www.google.com/#q=news.ycombinator+api https://www.google.com/#q=news.ycombinator+api
- serf 12y agoI agree, but it's good marketing. It associates the act of searching with the hostname 'algolia', which seems to be in their interest (being that their tagline is "Hosted cloud search as a service | AlgoliaSearch").
