This matches my experience having received one Nov 2018 (and returning it a few weeks later). It was constantly getting my actual sleep times wrong, more often than not marking me as being asleep while watching tv in the evening. After cont

That's what is intended -- it shows the items currently on the frontpage. So it will not show entry from the previous days because they are no longer on the frontpage. (The UI should not show the previous days in this case, and maybe t

I had the same issue with Feedly's "features". I've maintained a stylish extension for Feedly that I keep adding to. Every time they add something that I don't want to see, I hide it via css. Thanks for the prompt,

I find the chronological history of hckrnews.com adds context to why many things get flagged. For example, immediately after the bloomberg article was posted about Google firing the memo author, were several other articles with the same con

Please consider opening up the issue tracker. Other people might benefit from seeing these issues, such as the issue about the comment count that I just raised as a comment here.

Would it be possible to cache the number of comments a story has? Or am I wrong in my understanding that the only way to find the number of comments a story has is to walk the tree of child items and maintain my own count?

Sorry if I never got back to you about this. There were definitely some bugs around the filtering / content loading. I _think_ they've been resolved for a while now, so I hope you'll give it another shot.

Huh, I never even realized that Chrome had removed the ability to install extensions from third party websites. I'll get that up on the chrome web store when I get some time.

Interesting idea. This could be useful for signup and contact forms from a static website. It's amusing to me that the contact link is just a mailto. Why not use MailerJS?
