Show HN: Turning 100-plus comments HN threads into readable discussions

8 pointsby freakynittoday at 2:45 AM2 commentsview on HN

HN has some of the best discussions on the internet, but I don’t love reading 100 comments to find 10 great insights.

This site analyzes top HN threads with LLMs and summarizes the key ideas, disagreements, and resources — while preserving links to the original discussion.

Useful for revisiting old threads as well.

Updated daily, manual-assisted for quality, no spam, fan project only.

Would love thoughts from the community.

Nice project — it makes long HN threads much easier to revisit.

Interesting to see the edge cases, like "Tell HN: Happy New Year": https://hn-discussions.top/happy-new-year-2025/

Basically everyone just saying "Happy New Year" so it's fun to see how the LLM tries to interpret that. For example, my comment was summarized as: "gratitude – celebratory – looking forward: celebratory greeting for the new year"
