This is obviously a neat project, and I'm excited to see it. But... I spent a couple of minutes scrolling through the summarised posts and my main takeaway was that it was extremely boring compared to the normal experience of reading HN. Instead of dipping in and out of content, finding interesting nuggets and jumping around between topics, this felt like listening to someone read out the football scores.

Similarly, I spend much more time reading HN comments than the articles themselves. I made this little ChatGPT prompt for analyzing the comments[1][2]. But, I'm still here reading comments. I guess there are just some things AI can't replace... yet?

If you could find a way to summarize the comments too, that would be a huge win IMO. Either way, very cool.

There is a lot of competing sentiments in comments. Unlikely to work as a summary

I wrote a tampermonkey script(1) so you don't have to navigate away and it shows you summary and takeaways right inside hacker news (2) div boxes, but i was using kagi.com/v1/summarization for the api which is now dead. But this is the perfect fit for it as I see you have created services for extraction and summarisation which can be easily self hosted and turned into apis.
