Ask HN: Is there a curated newsletter version of Hacker News?

19 points by surfsvammel 5y ago ↗ HN

I am trying to decrease my screen time and Hacker News is one of the largest time sinks in my life. I don't, however, want to get rid of it altogether. I found something called HackerNewsLetter, but latest issue seems to be a couple of years old. Is there anyone who curates Hacker News into a news letter that I can read once a week and still get the top stories?

The best! It actually helped me take a more moderate view on the HN crowd. I'll admit I used to put people's opinions here on a pedestal.

https://www.hndigest.com/ is the best here.

Not quite hacker news centric but I do source my own newsletter from hacker news https://betterdev.link

Note stay way from https://www.daemonology.net/hn-daily/ When I clicked "Daily email subscription" it shows me a very creepy full screen ads https://pix.fastloop.xyz/upload/7242cd2fe763c406fc5b743e3de4...

"...stay way from..."

It's called uBlock Origin. In this day and age is a must, regardless of your browser.

https://hackernewsletter.com/ is a weekly newsletter and pretty much gives all categories and covers the most interesting submissions.

https://hckrnews.com/ provides top 10%, 20% and 50% of the news sorted for each day. I usually visit it at the end of busy days to catch up.

I need to fix the signup page, but https://hackernewsletter.com/ is alive and active - issue #548 will go out Friday.

It says the latest was sent in 2018 :)

Even though I usually get downvoted when posting about http://n-gate.com/hackernews/, the writing is funny and I’ve discovered many interesting threads through it.
