I love Hacker News, the problem is that, like all social platforms, it easily becomes a slot machine. Every time you look there is a new post or comment!
HackerDaily is built to alleviate this problem as well as a few others:
- The posts are grouped per day, starting from yesterday. So you never miss the best posts
- The articles are readable on the site itself. No more loading of multi-MB webpages just to read a simple article
- It has an improved collapsing comment system
- It’s a PWA, so you can install it to your homescreen and use it as an app
That is correct. HackerDaily only shows posts with a score of a hundred and higher. The posts are ranked by score, so you only see the best posts per day.
