Hacker News with Tags

Hi, I’m Kirubakaran. I’m building histre - a knowledge tool for individuals and teams. One of the features of histre is to auto-organize your knowledge. I thought that a fun way to demo that could be to apply that to the Hacker News front page. This page mirrors HN with tags automatically applied: https://histre.com/hn/ You can filter by or exclude multiple tags. For example, if you’re tired of posts related to ai and politics, this will remove them https://histre.com/hn/?tags=+all-ai-politics The tags for the posts are picked by gpt-3.5 You can get…

Hacker News with Tags launched on May 11, 2023 with 99 votes, #533 of 4,910 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.

In plain words

Hacker News with Tags is a filtered view of Hacker News posts that automatically assigns topic tags using GPT-3.5. Users can filter stories by including or excluding specific tags, allowing them to customize their feed away from topics like AI or politics. The tool is designed to demonstrate histre's knowledge organization features and is available as a standalone website or open-source browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox, letting users see tags directly on Hacker News.

  • I was tired of opening 2 tabs for every HN link, so I made a userscriptJul 2026 · github.com · ▲433

    HN is great for the links people share, but a big part of the value I get comes from reading the discussion around them. I realized I was always opening the article in one tab and the comments in another, constantly switching back and forth. I figured there was probably a simpler way, so I threw together this userscript to merge the two. 1. Clicking a link from Hacker News opens the article with a side panel containing the discussion. It doesn't require your credentials, is resizable, and is easy to tweak if you want to customize it. 2. If you land on an article that has previously been…

  • hcker.news – an ergonomic, timeline-based Hacker News front page2025 · hcker.news · ▲180

    Hi folks, I've built an alternative Hacker News front page. It is inspired by and meant to be a replacement for hckrnews.com. I built this because HN is woefully underfeatured, but most sites that try to improve it seem to assume that the visual design is the problem. hcker.news tries to maintain HN's familiarity while adding useful enhancements. There are three primary views: - Timeline View: Browse top stories by votes or comments grouped by day, week, or month (e.g., top 20 per day, top 100 per week). - Aggregate View: See top stories by votes or comments over custom time ranges. - Front…

    HackYourNews – AI summaries of the top HN stories2023 · hackyournews.com · ▲335

    Hey there HN! I wanted to share a pet project of mine. I built HackYourNews [1] to scratch a personal itch: Knowing which stories to focus on while browsing aimlessly (though there is a certain joy in that, as well!) HackYourNews uses OpenAI's gpt-3.5-turbo to summarize the destination article as well as the comments section. Summarization of the article is always cached, while summaries of the comments are regenerated if the comments count is >10% (or >10 comments) different. While I styled the homepage to welcome HNers, my preferred view is the Mobile view, accessed from the navbar. This…
