Not being updated any more, but might be useful to someone.

I had the same problem. I made this browser add-on to try and fix that...

Yeah, I spent too much time making it and not enough thinking about how I would explain what it does!

Thanks for the feedback.

A while ago I made a bookmark add-on which could be used to do something similar. But it sunk without a trace on HN. Posting it here as readers probably already interested in bookmark related stuff...

Re:Ask HN: Where are all the old Show HNs? on Tuesday September 28, 2021 @05:23PM (#28687698)
I submitted a "Show HN" post recently and watched it sink down the "new" page without any interaction.

I wonder if it's because I created a new account to post it, or more likely I had a terrible/generic sounding post title.

It's also difficult to pick the right time of day to post. I thought I had it right - picking Monday morning west coast (US) time, but I guess there is a big difference between just before and just after people get to work!

I would have liked to hear what people think, even if it's "This is bad, and you should feel bad".
