Tip:

DuckDuckGo has the !hn bang for searching in the algolia page, so just stick it to the end of your query instead of site:news.ycombinator.com and you are good to go!

I noticed the algolia search is not very good and doesn’t go back as far. I think it limits results to 6 years or so.

Weird, because the front page with the most popular of all time show posts from 9+ years ago, but if you search something popular like "microsoft" and sort by date it only goes back a few months. I think it truncates by a 1000 results or so
