Sounds like a good way to read average articles and reinforce a filter bubble, click bait titles, and bike-shedding.

#12Great service!
Good work
but
What is that backgound? HUrts my eyes in kind of funny way
Re: Show HN: View Top 10 posts on HN, Reddit, Medium every day, week and month
#13The thing I'm always missing on Reddit and HN is a sliding scale to tweak the time dropoff factor. For example I've been busy and check Reddit for the first time in four days. Ideally I'd see the most important stuff of the past 4 days, but the algorithm for "best" is not configurable and I roughly see what's hot today. Another example is a thoroughly boring lesson where you just keep hitting refresh and all the link…
That's something that Digg did well. You could click "top today/24 hours/week/x days" and you would see the submissions with most diggs in 24 hours/week/days/etc.
But why not make it a sliding scale, where you can pick the past 17.3 minutes if you wish to do so?

#15i have not found anything more powerful than panda for this kind of thing, its the perfect mix of customization and preconfiguration. http://usepanda.com/app/
I got here through Panda.
This app/plugin is well done.

#16GitHub part is so flawed... because FreeCodeCamp inflate their popularity by requiring during onboarding for the user to star their repository yet keeping them at the top. It's like if I told everyone to vote up my Hacker News posts... and gave them the link to do it and GitHub has no remedy for that inflation.

#17Good job. Btw, there is a similar project here: http://reader.one/ (lol, just got a downvote)
Well, that Reader One (One Reader?) only seems to show the current top N posts of a couple of popular sites (Hacker News, Product Hunt, Reddit, Slashdot, Designer News, Lifehacker, ...). Is there a (hidden) feature to show the top posts on a daily, weekly or monthly level?

#18Earlier quoted context omitted.

Might be because it requires more complex database querying and/or is less cacheable.

#19It's only for Hacker News, but Colin Parcival daily posts the top 10 HN posts on http://www.daemonology.net/hn-daily/. It lacks your feature to show the top posts on a weekly or monthly level (and more sources), which are cool features. (I'm not a big fan of the UI style thought.)
Then there's also "hckr news", https://hckrnews.com/, which shows the top 10 or top 20 per day, or the top 50% of every six hours. But also that one is just for Hacker News.

This is why we recently retired FreeCodeCamp from Changelog Nightly[^1]. It was in the Top Starred list each and every night for months on end. Impressive, but not very interesting.
