Looks clean, I love the top 20 and 50% filters. Is there a way to jump to a specific day? Let's say August 30th 2022. I see each day has a single GET request (for example https://hckrnews.com/data/20220830.js ) but it doesn't refresh the site.

My app uses the data from HckrNews: https://hw.leftium.com/#/date/20220830

How my app processes a URL like https://hckrnews.com/data/20220830.js:

dark mode?

I use stylish to apply my own (quick and easy) dark mode to hckr news:

  @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
    body { background-color: #444; color: #ccc; }
    .entries a:hover { background-color: #666; }
    .c00 { color: #ccc; }
    a:link, .c00 a:link { color: #ddd; }
    textarea { background-color: #555; color: #ddd; }
    .pagetop { color: #ddd; }
    .pagetop a { color: #eee !important; }
    #hnmain > tbody:first-child > tr:first-child td { background-color: #630; }
  }

Earlier quoted context omitted.

That setting only works on logged in hacker news accounts. Won’t work on third party sites unless they have access to your auth cookies.

hckrnews does show dead posts. It's only a link though - no title or scores.

No it doesn’t, or at least not always. I wasted my time last night on the stupid “junior dev thinks he’s a senior” crap post because it was on hckrnews (with points and comment counts) even though it was killed (flagged) on the real HN.

(I browse with showdead but I still have a signal that says “this may not be worth your time” before reading.)

Love hckr news, it has basically replaced the "front page" of Hacker News for me. So much easier to find the top/relevant/most discussed stories at a glance, particularly for last week's news!

I've been using hckrnews since it came out I think. So much better on mobile.

There are other views: https://news.ycombinator.com/lists Not so customizable, though.

My HACK app provides all those (and a few additional views which aren't listed on that page) plus chronological views which can be filtered by Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly. You can also filter for posts with 100, 200, 300, 400 or 500 points. Also sends push notifications for when someone replies/comments to your post/comment.

The issue though is that it's an app. Why would I install something when I already have a browser :-)

The browser at least doesn’t offer push notifications for replies to your posts and comments. I believe my app is the only one which offers that.
