#2How does this compare with the version made by cperviva http://www.daemonology.net/hn-daily/ ?
(I'm not complaining. Each one can implement their own version. Moreover, perhaps you didn't know about it.)

Didn't know it existed, perhaps I would've used it. I like hckrnews.com interface, but wanted some help to reduce my screen time.

#4I really like this interface. If this had a 'fast' version it would replace the landing page of hacker news for me

I think what you want exists: https://hckrnews.com
Edit: Actually, now that I have read the about page for slowhn, it's literally a clone of hckrnews with some features stripped out and some intentional "rate limiting" to slow down how quickly new stories appear.

#6Nice work! The about section says that it updates once per day.
What time of day does it update?

#7I saw the title, misunderstood the nature of the delay, and thought “oh are you developing a SPA framework?” (no I’m not disparaging SPAs or their frameworks; this is a reference to, IIRC, SolidJS creator’s reasonable point that HN clones make for poor SPA performance demos because HN will always be faster).
Anyway, I was very confused when the page loaded almost instantly, but thankfully the About page does too :)

#8If I may be so bold, as I’m not the submitter:

“SlowHN is a clone of hckrnews.com because I wanted to stop compulsively checking the website every hour. This shows the top stories from yesterday, and only updates once per day like a newspaper.”

#9I like it a lot. Two things: it'd be great to be able to sort by comments / points, and you have a broken link - click about and then about again (suggest this link should actually change to "home" when you're on the about page).
