Apologies for crossing the first rule of HN (The first rule of HN: do not talk about HN on HN) but there seems to be no other good spot to have a discussion about an idea like this.
What would you suggest I do instead ?
I believe the feature request link at the bottom goes to an appropriate place to have such conversations.
That thread looks quite dead to me.
You could fork the source and run your own A/B testing.
Except that wouldn't be sampling the HN community which would make the test unable to answer the original question.
Code in hand goes further than request in hand.
I believe the feature request link at the bottom goes to an appropriate place to have such conversations.
Indeed it does. I count on the curators of the site to read that thread.
