Hacker News Reader

If someone could write a wrapper to do this with any major news website, they'd have a hugely popular and profitable product.

I can't believe wayback machine has this. I ran a text-only scraper for ~200 websites back in the early 2000s.

Most were RSS feeds, since those used to exist. The rest were hand-written parsers, which were highly temperamental.

The problem with that is you could aggregate the links, but you can't host the content which kinda defeats the point in the first place.
