Why the clickbait title containing "hackernews algorithm" if in reality your goal (by previous submissions like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8606401) is to build a clone of reddit/producthunt. That's just misleading.

Sorry for this misleading, but we are using the (P-1) / (T+2)^G algorithm from hacker news to rank all apps.
