Show HN: Augmented Hacker News Reader V2(hacker-news.news)

8 points by piccogabriele 4 years ago | 6 comments

The augmented reader I created a while ago just hit 20k monthly readers, a small achievement I wanted to share. I know it is a low number but considering that I have not invested or promoted the site in any way it is still a good result for me. I had shared the site on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24006339) and received some criticism which I used to improve the interface.

With this post I would like to receive an additional round of comments and feedback. Thanks in advance to anyone who will comment.

The code is open source (https://github.com/GabrielePicco/hacker-news-rich) and some useful tips have been integrated into the interface over time (e.g., collapsible comments)

A nice looking interface. But I would miss being able to quickly scan down titles. Also the images often contain cut off text on my phone.

The idea was to being able to quickly scan articles adding preview and description, but yes it inevitably takes up more space. I will take a look at the cut off text, thank you!

A nice look interface, what about showing more than 3 elements?

I didn't want images to be too small, but I can give it a try, thank you!
