#2Why not just sort the topics of the last n hours by some criterion? Then you can choose how many stories you read depending on the amount of time you have.
The criterion could be simple (e.g. amount of upvotes), or it could be based on personal interests (e.g. collaborative filtering).

#4I actually have a use case for this: I try to ban myself from browsing websites because I think it ruins my attention span. Particularly, reading all the headlines so quickly. This is why I quit reddit entirely. But sometimes I have some time to kill and still need something to read, so going straight to the top HN story is nice. Suggestion: add a way to scroll to the next story, but still only show one at a time.

This is what I use. It's such a useful tool. I'm surprised Ycominator don't add it as a feature.
Most popular over the last 24 hours? https://hn.algolia.com/?query=&sort=byPopularity&prefix&page...

#7I wish there was a service that shows HN pages with short previews of the linked stories included so that you had more info to decide whether to click the link, or go straight to the comments, or skip the story altogether.

I guess YC like to support Algolia as it's a YC company https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14514389

Yes, although it's still missing the personalization (collaborative filtering) part.
