Really like this, are you planning expanding on it in future?
Hi @tomf, thanks for the nice feedback!
I'm working on more features, like others "news providers", see comments and up/down votes.
Thanks for ask!
I do think you should make this default to showing the top stories instead, given there is no way to vote, it's better just to show stories that have already been voted up. Also, I think you should use their idea of an exit option at the end, I couldn't find a way to exit save Ctl-C.
It would be really nice to be able to filter stories on a query string too, as then you could easily search for stories about Go for example (wish HN had better metadata for this, but it would still help).
Thanks for great feedback @kenny. Totally agree with "top stories" as default story type. About exit option, I thinking about a "help" screen with a description of all keyboard shortcuts. About filter stories, great idea, thanks :)
Looking forward to seeing this evolve, please post again when you have more updates.
For sure, thanks
