What HN said

What people liked

  • Good UX

    • this is good. I like the UX. one suggestion is to make the logo much smaller on article pages. it is nice, but unnecessarily large (as is the top margin on article pages).

Objections

Questions

  • Can someone like or unlike articles by guessing IDs?

    From 3 comments
