Some more details: It’s using simple heuristics like minimum upvotes/comments to select the links. For techmeme, only the first headline on techmeme.com is considered a top link. For reddit, currently fetching content from only a select few subreddits.
It’s just a simple page. No ad. No tracking. It’s the first tab I open in the morning. Suggestions and feedback are welcome. :)
Date and time displayed on each link
Consider adding an RSS feed
Consider (real edge case here) adding a plain text alternative with the origin Web site stated after each link (e.g. test using links or w3m in a terminal)
High density, compact and loads fast.
BTW Probably a stupid question but what is the site with the logo that looks like a T with a hyphen/horizontal bar on top (T̄ or ₸)?
And yet, loads 5 domains straight up: cloudflare, fotawesome, hwcdn, jquery
bodyweightfitness, breadit, dataisbeautiful, digitalnomad, onebag, Ultralight, walkablecities, cozy_places, artisanvideos, relationship_advice, bestof, financialindependence, gamedev, gamedesign, HighQualityGifs, museum, Pareidolia, programming, programmer_humor, space, startups, SaaS, webdev, science
That being said, I find that Reddit is like Twitter - if you take the time to curate and cultivate your subreddits, you can have a very good experience there. The best of Reddit is the small subreddits that fit your niche and your communities.
But, at the same time I think this has always been a problem, even 10 years ago the 'Reddit Hivemind' was a thing people spoke about. It's just worse now (because there are even more people using it, more bots reposting the same clickbait, more conglomeration of a few moderators owning several large subs)
Edit: would the hivemind care to stop upvoting this so I could make my point here?
What few subreddits have survived this are either incredibly niche, or aggressively working to make new members lurk before they post.
