Hacker News Reader

My go to "trick" is just to slap Reddit or hacker news to the end of the search. And if something doesn't already have a post addressing the specific topic, go to the subreddit and query the community

View on HN

Yep. It's just a shame reddit is such a mess now in terms of their devolution of UI (for example their "old" UI now shows random links in the middle, their mobile experience is trash, etc), which is a pain as there is so much useful information there for very niche searches.

Reddit & Stackoverflow are great for niche searches, and I'm glad we have them. Also comes up with HN and now and then that someone chimes in with a great tidbit.

I quite enjoy the new UI. I'm using it since the beginning and now I'm put off when someone posts a link to old UI version.
