A lot of older websites actually used to do this with a “what’s new” section or page. With blogging, “what’s new” became the entire site, with almost the entirety of the content (everything that wasn't new) now hidden.

Ironically, after mentioning that discussion dies off incredibly quickly when HN stories fall of the front page, this discussion was moved off the front page to a day old discussion. My guess is that almost no one will see it now.

People some how forgot the concept of accumulated value. It use to be my main argument against platforms. You dump your stuff onthere and then it vanishes into the memory hole entirely by design. The point is to keep you on the website not to make your stuff available. It is a strange contradiction that really shouldn't be.

I remember when forums gradually turned into q&a repos.

Ive seen it! But yeah, I typically only browse the best stories section, basically I really want some human curation in my feed which might help with the vast amount of infogarbage generated by llms?
