Ask HN: Is the 'new' page the best way to pick news?
There are already a lot of submissions, and depending on the rate of submissions at the time you submit, and the number of eyeballs on the new page, it is a matter of chance that a good submission catches any interest.
I would rather prefer that the effect of luck is reduced and good submissions always get picked up. For example, new submissions could be organized in a different way for people to upvote. E.g. I should be able to have a day's worth of time window to check new submissions and upvote them, and search for keywords in submissions. Any comments?
