I think Hacker News needs to do more to highlight Show HNs. Lots of them just disappear without trace and with no-one commenting on them. So I like what you have done. It brings some much-needed attention to Show HN.
Hi, Sebastien here, maker of this small webapp!<p>I created it to find information about people who posted projects here on Show HN, to find their Twitter and GitHub accounts, etc. I needed it for another project, so hopefully it will be useful to other people as well :)<p>Oh and it is open source, you can find the source code on GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/scastiel/showhn-projects" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/scastiel/showhn-projects</a>
Perhaps rearrange account tags so that the HN acc info comes last. Every entry on your list has it, so it will arrange itself into a column across all entries.<p>Edit #1 - in fact, I'd drop media/github account names and format the account info in a table. [icon count] [icon count] [icon count]. If there's no, say, Twitter account, then show [icon -], both in gray. This will make the info easier to scan and digest.<p>Edit #2 - in the Filters popup, if I understand it correctly, one is expected to click on the label to enable a filter. I'd add at least an ":hover" state to labels then, because right now they do not look actionable at all. Also the popup jerks left-right when toggling the first filter. It's a minor thing, but still a bit annoying.
Good work, thanks. I feel bad saying "why don't you" when I'm not willing to PR it myself but ... it would be really good if each "Show" had a permalink so you could send a link to someone and be sure they would find it (within <a href="https://showhn-dashboard.netlify.app/" rel="nofollow">https://showhn-dashboard.netlify.app/</a>). Thanks again.
My Show HN projects aren't there. I'm not sure they ever appeared on <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/show" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/show</a> either. The HN FAQ says that all you have to do is prefix the title with Show HN but I think there's a bug that prevents some Show HN stories from being detected.
