- Hacker News
- I miss the old look what someone built vibe too. There is still good stuff in Show HN threads but it does take more digging now than it used to.
- I’ve updated the RNKFlow.com filter to use a comma separated list of terms. Using a negative term will filter out stories you don’t want to see. If you sign in, you can save a default filter list and I’ve made it part of the free tier. Hope this helps a bit.by JCSlim
- I've been thinking for a while to create an AI tool to classify articles (not just on HN), and filter the ones I'm not in the mood for.by Maledictus
- I would agree. While not quite what you’re looking for, I recently built a site, RNKFlow.com (Rank Flow), to bring in multiple tech/science feeds including HN and Product Hunt to pull in more interesting posts. There is a filter option so can search across all feeds and only see what you’re interested in. Also an alerting function where you can add keyword tags and get an email digest. And Categories to limit posts only Robotics or Show HN/PH as an example. So not quite what you’re going after, but maybe a better overall experience for you.by JCSlim
- Lobste.rd for general tech, specific subreddits or Discord communities for narrower topics. HN is probably not coming back from this one the AI industry is too concentrated in the same demographic that posts there.by Leena-ch
- Everything is pushy AI nowdays, and some people don't even realize it. Hacking with AI, tools with AI, AI agents and goes on. I for example, when I see AI, I don't even read them, easy as that. Wasn't an announcement No AI, couple months ago here?by annagio_
- Was thinking the same thing. I love Hacker News, but perhaps an AI filter on the site would be really useful.by sagrd
- Yeah, it's become such a boring AI marketing outlet.by lordkrandel
