Hi HN<p>I thought I'd announce some updates to Quality News, our alternative HN client:<p>1. Retention of Story Stats Charts<p>Story Stats/Charts pages (example: <a href="https://news.social-protocols.org/stats?id=42802210" rel="nofollow">https://news.social-protocols.org/stats?id=42802210</a>) no longer 404 after 30 days.<p>We notice that people on HN were sometimes sharing links to these pages (example: <a href="https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=news.social-protocols.org%2Fstats&sort=byDate&type=comment" rel="nofollow">https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...</a>), and we felt guilty when those links would break. So we now keep story stats pages indefinitely.<p>2. New Ranking Algorithms<p>We've implemented some new ranking algorithms at <a href="https://news.social-protocols.org/algorithms" rel="nofollow">https://news.social-protocols.org/algorithms</a><p>For example, <a href="https://news.social-protocols.org/penalties" rel="nofollow">https://news.social-protocols.org/penalties</a> shows stories that have probably been penalized by HN moderators, and <a href="https://news.social-protocols.org/resubmissions" rel="nofollow">https://news.social-protocols.org/resubmissions</a> shows stories that have been randomly selected from the second-chance pool (<a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26998308">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26998308</a>) and added to the front page.<p>Enjoy!
