Earlier quoted context omitted.

Agree with this, the first version had no autorefresh. But this is quite annoying if you have this open in a tab. You get old news, and that kind of is against the purpose of the app.

I guess there are two types of users - constant checkers might like auto-refresh but if you check less frequently then you want to scroll deep and for us, auto-refresh is a usability nightmare.

Agree with this. If you have a solution please let me know. For now I'm considering adding it as a setting.

Sweet! I just think it's too hectic. It refreshes the view too often and I lose my focus.

Thank you for the feedback. Was mentioned several times. Will be addressed in a future release. Probably a flag in the settings.

Cute - but totally the opposite of what I want. Can you make a site that makes Pinterest (and Facebook!) look like HN, reducing each post to a clear, informative headline, so I can quickly scan 25+ posts without having to scroll, and click through to the ones I'm actually interested in?

Try the original version (https://vue-hn.now.sh/ ) ;)

I really like the concept. Great work! The auto refresh is slightly annoying for me personally but I could live with it :)

I agree. Love the layout and the fact I can get more of an idea what the thread is about, but the constant auto refreshing, as well as the refreshing while scrolling threw me a little bit.

I tend to skim a bunch of articles, and make a mental note of the position of interesting ones to go back to later, but when I scroll up, everything is in a different location, breaking the mental map that I had built.

Other than that, I think it is a great alternative. Good work.

Love original version! Only thing stopping me from making it my regular client is the lack of "best" menu item. I love checking out day's best or week's best if I've been to busy to keep up. Great work though.
