I wish dang could make it into an auto-updating list!

Good idea. Actually we should add most-favorited stories and comments to the lists page (linked at bottom).

Edit: anybody want to suggest any other lists for the lists list?

Yeah, I read the bestcomments on the weekend, to see what I may have missed in the last week. But I've no idea what the time frame those are under. Having a selectable time frame would be nice. Like, not just: past week, past month, past year, etc. But more like oct/2013-dec/2013, though that would not be as 'clean'.

Interesting. I'm surprised the counts for the most popular comments are so low, given the number of users on HN

I don’t know about other folks but I don’t think I’ve ever used the ‘favorite’ feature on comments.

Favorite feature isn't really easy to discover. You have to click a comment's timestamp to go to its page, then click favorite.

I remember that Oracle database one!
