I built HN Glance because I often find that a title, score, and comment count aren't enough to tell me whether an HN link is worth opening.
I'm a visual person, so I've added a visual preview of the submitted page so you can quickly judge whether it's an article, paper, product page, paywall, etc. The screenshot isn't meant as decoration — it's part of deciding whether the source deserves a click.
I've also been experimenting with how to read deep HN discussions. The normal nested comment tree is still there, but there's an optional Discussion Focus that lets you navigate a branch through columns while keeping the selected comment and its path back to the root in view.
The broader idea is to make it easier to answer two questions: is this story worth my attention? and, once I'm interested, is the value in the source, the HN discussion, or links people shared in the discussion?
I'd be interested in feedback on the discussion navigation in particular.
I appreciate your proposal, and in a way, I’ve already explored a similar idea. However, for this concept to be successful, you’ll need a large screen, preferably wide. Unfortunately, I haven’t had a comparable good experience on mobile devices.
I’ll revisit this idea. Thank you for the feedback. However, I want to ensure that the reader remains focused. In today’s fast-paced world, everything revolves around quick consumption and filtering options. I wanted to create a quick way to scan and evaluate the content, followed by a simple way to immerse oneself in the article, read it, scan it, and check the comments.

I built a browser-based domain name explorer that uses DNS-over-HTTPS to keep your million-dollar ideas secret. It's like whispering "Is this domain taken?" to the internet without anyone eavesdropping. Feedback is welcome on improving accuracy without sacrificing tinfoil hat compatibility.
Show HN: LatentSpace Haiku – AI-Generated Haikus with Matching Imagery
Hey HN! Check out my weekend project: LatentSpace Haiku. It combines haikus generated by Cloudflare's Mistral model, running on AI Workers, with images from Lexica.art's vector embedding search engine. The goal? To see if AI can create poetry that resonates emotionally and visually.Be warned, the UI is basic – I'm more interested in whether the content sparks any reaction. Some haikus are deep;...
