I run a newsletter on top of Hacker News - basically I make a round up of the best 35-50 links from HN and sent it in a weekly email. Not always the latest news, since there is a delay between when articles/news are posted here and whe

The hard part I think it’s attracting users. The jobs section is nice to have, but the users come mostly for the news section, I guess?! i know that’s why I am there. Investing in filtering it’s worth when you have a big list of sort to fil
