Somebody recently vibecoded https://github.com/fragmede/nitpick and posted here which is pretty good but I really want to browse the sites in terminal too. Then I discovered I have had an hn alias to lynx gopher://hngopher.com . w3m also works but I want to be able to browser with full w3m images support but most sites just break on needing JavaScript. Some front end to a headless chrome/Firefox instance like brow6el or awrit might work but I haven't attempted those with much success yet
Back when I was a lowly web dev intern - I was able to finish most of my work rather quickly. Obviously, instead of going above and beyond - I found a way to browse Reddit in the terminal.
My manager was non-technical, and so anytime he walked past my desk it appeared that I was hackin’ away. I had (and still do) have my terminal set up to be black background with bright cyan text.
I already use a HN cli called w3m.
sent with w3m
wow are u arch user too
They aren't - they'd have led with that. (note: I use arch and am legally obligated to tell you).
I will be as soon as I get my workstation to not kernel panic on boot (plus figure out why wayland compositor is just giving me a blank screen)
links2 and lynx here.
elinks here
Still going for javascript support with quickjs?

with hackernews I wouldn't be surprised if this still worked
Python 2.7 as a requirement
Forked it and vibe updated it.

Nice work — I like the simplicity.
I built a TUI version of this in Go — I just love doing everything in the terminal.
Built a small prototype here if you’re curious: https://github.com/heartleo/hn-cli
Usually the first thing, the page should mention is how to install it.
it is as if developer does not want anyone to use this tool.
Anyone use hnterm? https://github.com/ggerganov/hnterm
I think it still works pretty well, and written in C++ instead of the "cool kids" Go/Rust
> and written in C++ instead of the "cool kids" Go/Rust
Is that supposed to sound like an argument in favor of it? Because it doesn’t.
I thought this would provide easy query access, but it does not seem to.
Is there a CLI that queries hn.algolia.com and returns structured data?
The CLI tool space has changed so much since then. Everything is getting rewritten in Rust or Go now.
these may be of interest:

Lazy question: is the web API (CURL) allow to login and do posts?
no information about installation - no github repo

lol, even the link is not correct.
.con, instead of .com
(2014) OP
Can we have an official Hacker News API that lets me authenticate to my account and grab the submissions and comments that I have upvoted?
