App Store release in progress

Hacker News, in a cleaner native flow.

HackNe brings the core Hacker News experience to iPhone with faster feed browsing, direct in-app article reading, threaded comments, and a UI that stays out of the way.

HackNe feed view
Feed

Open the feed, scan the stories, move straight into the article.

The website now follows the same core path as the app. You start from a clean feed, open a story directly, and jump into comments only when you want the discussion.

01

Choose the feed

Top, New, Best, Ask, Show, and Jobs all live behind one native feed picker instead of separate tabs.

02

Read in place

Tapping a story opens the linked article inside the app, so the reading flow stays contained and fast.

03

Jump to comments

The comments screen keeps the thread, story context, and submitter details together when you want to go deeper.
