IMO the HN search isn't even worth using -- it's way too strict. Google's a lot better at finding relevance without the exact keywords.
And also, HN's title policy is unfortunate :( I wish we had the editorial freedom to give articles better, more meaningful titles... but the guidelines actively discourage that.
instead of having a web3 Popcorn time, why do torrent websites not adapt a tokenised model to increment the number of seeders? could not seeders become sort of miners where they get some sort of token by hosting files? And leechers would need to pay a low amount of tokens to download some files therefore increasing the value of those tokens and incentivising further file hosting? furthermore, people who post content would need to lock some amount of tokens (and receive some profit based on the number of downloads) but in case the content they post is insecure they can be slashed. the number of tokens they lock determines the index of the result after a search. so more tokens locked = higher in the ranking. by slashing the accounts who post files containing viruses, this would make the files hosted on the website way safer.
plus no ads needed because the website's devs can have an initial amount of tokens that are vested linearly thus incentivising them to mantain the website
how do you have a RSS feed of HN? what links does it include out of the thousands that are posted here daily? also, can I ask you what service are you currently using for you RSS feed?
thanks.
Unfortunately, it only includes the title and the submission’s link, no content, which makes it a bit useless if your intension is to read the articles and not just the titles, which you can already do by visiting the home page.
Some people have created complementary RSS feeds like this → https://github.com/cixtor/rssfeed#readme which basically take the submission’s URL, download the web page, and removes the irrelevant HTML tags using Mozilla’s Readability.js library. Although, this project uses a Go (golang) port: https://github.com/go-shiori/go-readability#readme . It seems to work quite well, with minor bugs here and there due to inconsistencies of modern web development.
There's probably more of them but if you look at the html (browsers used to have an icon for this...) there's a <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS" href="rss"> tag in there on the home page, so https://news.ycombinator.com/rss should be the feed
