My secret is f5bot.com ^_^

I’m notified when keywords related to “human wants thing, my app can do thing” appear on HN, Reddit and Lobsters.

If I can then contribute with information to that discussion, I’ll also leave a link to my app.

Don’t just self plug, people (myself included) appreciate more detailed information on how they can solve their own personal problem, instead of being thrown into “here’s an app, figure it out”

Here's something related telegram users might appreciate: https://github.com/lawxls/HackerNews-personalized

This is a telegram bot for managing personalized feed of stories from Hacker News. Just add keywords, and maybe set score threshold.

Was this a good self plug? :D

That’s actually really useful! I avoid some keywords in f5bot because they tend to be verbose and I don’t want to receive 100 emails per day on them.

A chat makes it perfect for this use case, I’ll use it right away, thanks for making and sharing it!
