Last time I posted my laptop finder idea (<a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39653971">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39653971</a>) I got some great feedback. I made some adjustments to the algorithm being used to display recommendations, filtered out some lower-quality brands, and tried adding more sanity checks to the data coming from the Amazon API (surprisingly not great quality!).<p>Importantly, I added an entirely new “advanced” section (<a href="https://easylaptopfinder.com/?advanced" rel="nofollow">https://easylaptopfinder.com/?advanced</a>), which is essentially just a filterable table of all the laptops on the site and the attributes I’m using from the Amazon API. I figure this is a nice interface for power users (and seems to work really well for another great site, diskprices.com). I’d be interested in what folks think of this new view (or the quality of the original finder itself). Also let me know if you have any questions about how this was implemented.<p>Thank you for taking a look and I appreciate any feedback!
You can repost after a year or so or for some major update or pivot but the very next week is too soon to repeat a Show HN that's already had traction. Take a look at<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html">https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html</a><p>and<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html">https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html</a>
It would be great to see non Amazon purchase options. I understand that would increase the complexity and it might make it more difficult to monetize if you want to add affiliate links, but having more options that might better fit a user could give the tool more use.<p>I would not purchase any of the options suggested to me by your site. With that said, It's also possible I am not your target demographic.
