Ask HN: Hacker News API is inconsistent?

2 pointsby 01walidover 2 years ago
I&#x27;m using multiple Android apps for reading hackernews (Harmonic, Hacki, Materialistic), all of them struggle to fetch the current top news (frontpage news). I often need to refresh multiple times to get them to work. That specific endpoint feels like aggressively throttled.<p>However the web version works just fine.<p>Is it just me? Are other people facing the same problem?
