#82This is really nice, well done! One suggestion I might add is that you remove the hover effect from the image. It feels a bit inconsistent maybe? Also not 100% sure about the infinite scrolling. I spend a lot of time on half-working internet and have to refresh the page a lot. Also it means that when scrolling there's a lot of items jumping around on the page, which means you lose your place quite easily.
Adding on the issue of refresh; I usually access HN on my iPhone - currently every back action triggers a _refresh_. A great example of back action handing is Reddit's mobile page.
Other than that the whole thing looks really neat.

#84Earlier quoted context omitted.
May be you should consider rejecting random urls from your thumbnail generation endpoint. Now I could generate thumbnail of any website e.g. my blog https://hnews.xyz/thumbnail/?url=http://rajeeshcv.com
It's a hard one to do.I agree you can do that now. I'm thinking on a solution, but it's not really easy. Right now I have no solution.
Do what https://hackernewsfilter.com/ does, use a Bloom filter. It's simple enough.

#85The more I am studying React + Redux, the more it becomes apparent to me that it's over engineered for an individual and even a small team. It feels like the Java Swing days where verbosity and architectural opinion dominates all in the name of cross-platformity.
Another minus is that you no longer use the existing conventions that stood the test of time, HTML and CSS. It's now JSX and you have to write boilerplate JS code just to show a simple hello world example. On top of that it poses barriers for designers who only had to worry about how the HTML/CSS looks, now additional work has to go into splitting everything into myriad logical pieces which really have no impact on the overall productivity or quality. And that's only for the React view side, the real beast is Redux. That simple grid table you could get away with using jqGrid is now a 10 week job involving multiple engineers.
I'm curious to know if anyone found any enlightment working with Vue.js and whether something like Redux makes sense to hold states of the app or if they got away with it.

#86Hi, I'm the author of this project. The code will be available soon on github: at https://github.com/valentinvieriu/visual-hacker-news - right now that's the old version using Angularjs The project uses as a starting point the amazing Vuejs Implementation from https://github.com/vuejs/vue-hackernews-2.0 . It has super fast server side rendering, that's why the feedback is imediate as you load the page. The thumbnails…
My suggestion would be to wait a second or two for the pages to load before taking a screenshot of them. It seems that for some websites, there is dynamic loading or an animation first, and this shows up on your board as uninformative pictures.
Great job on the site though! It's very smooth.

Take this as a personal opinion, but I felt like I was having to work to find the titles...maybe they'd do better on top? Is that something that could be easily A/B tested?

You want enlightenment? Ignore the frameworks/JS hype.
"It's now JSX and you have to write boilerplate JS code just to show a simple hello world example."
This is absolute insanity. It's time for a re-discovery of “vanilla” HTML, CSS, with a sprinkling of "vanilla" JS from the ground up without any frameworks.
I mean.. this website doesn't even seem to work as intended: http://imgur.com/LdRFS4L

Are you using noscript or something? it looks great for me.

#90One really nice thing about this is that the screenshots are built-in defense against the editorialization of the submission title.
