I built a Slack-like reader for Hacker News
HN as a Slack workspace is a fun twist, but lacks real-time updates.

Aggregating Hacker News Stories by Topic
Handy, focused slice of HN history — the UI gives immediate controls for sorting by points, comments, backlinks and even snapshotting, so you can eyeball what topics dominated each year. The listing is readable and the filters in the header imply some non-trivial backlink/discussion aggregation behind the scenes. I want clearer methodology, export options and time-series views before this becomes a must-bookmark tool.
