Comment on Show HN: Hacker News, without AI

Comments

If you prefer something closer to the original layout: https://www.unslop.news/

I like the idea, but have a couple problems:

* It filters out things that are clearly not AI related (like the one titled ' Mind-altering drugs played key role in rise of Andean civilization ') - or maybe it's just slow to update (that post was 3 hours ago)

* No ability to go to the next page

* Order is often different than on HN, even account for the missing posts. It's mostly the same, but not quite, which always throws me for a loop to see if something else is missing.

Thank you for sharing my site :)

Do you know if there is a way of pointing any of the hackernews phone apps to your site instead of the official one?

I don't personally use those apps so I'm not sure, but if they're open source I'm confident you could easily update them to work with my site. In case it's useful, here's the source code https://github.com/leiDnedyA/hn-without-ai

It does not have a license so it cannot be used though.

Huh, perhaps there is a project to be done to consume the HN firehose and serve it AT Proto style from the firehose. HN mobile clients can then pick the feed they want. AI? No AI? Politics? No politics? Frameworks? No frameworks? Choose your own HN post feed adventure. Read replica esq consumption, writes (comments, posts, votes) go to the primary data store (HN).

You can do a lot of this stuff w/ the feed builder on hcker.news.

Thank you for basically only filtering and not changing the style. :)

Help me out here. Is AI something prevalent on HN now? I check the site a lot but just browse headlines and visit some sites.

At the bottom of the linked site, it says "79 of 179 submissions survived the filter" so if only ~44% survived I'd say that counts as "prevalent" yeah.
