- Somebody recently vibecoded https://github.com/fragmede/nitpick and posted here which is pretty good but I really want to browse the sites in terminal too. Then I discovered I have had an hn alias to lynx gopher://hngopher.com . w3m also works but I want to be able to browser with full w3m images support but most sites just break on needing JavaScript. Some front end to a headless chrome/Firefox instance like brow6el or awrit might work but I haven't attempted those with much success yet
- I already use a HN cli called w3m.
sent with w3m
- wow are u arch user too
- They aren't - they'd have led with that. (note: I use arch and am legally obligated to tell you).
- links2 and lynx here.
- Nice work — I like the simplicity.
I built a TUI version of this in Go — I just love doing everything in the terminal.
Built a small prototype here if you’re curious: https://github.com/heartleo/hn-cli
- Anyone use hnterm? https://github.com/ggerganov/hnterm
I think it still works pretty well, and written in C++ instead of the "cool kids" Go/Rust
- > and written in C++ instead of the "cool kids" Go/Rust
Is that supposed to sound like an argument in favor of it? Because it doesn’t.
- Lazy question: is the web API (CURL) allow to login and do posts?
- Usually the first thing, the page should mention is how to install it.
it is as if developer does not want anyone to use this tool.
- I thought this would provide easy query access, but it does not seem to.
Is there a CLI that queries hn.algolia.com and returns structured data?
- [12 years ago]
- with hackernews I wouldn't be surprised if this still worked
- Forked it and vibe updated it.
- Python 2.7 as a requirement
- The CLI tool space has changed so much since then. Everything is getting rewritten in Rust or Go now.
- these may be of interest:
- no information about installation - no github repo

Sidebar > Changelog > Hit the version 0.0.1 > fix the url to .com > remove tree and version
- lol, even the link is not correct.
.con, instead of .com
- Can we have an official Hacker News API that lets me authenticate to my account and grab the submissions and comments that I have upvoted?
