Yes, so currently top posts for day by zaprank shows me what was posted today. It is different from hot because zaprank doesn't diminish. So for example when there are a lot of posts in hot (like this week) then top(day) helps me find what I may have missed during the time I was coding instead of reading SN while I was imagining that my LLM was coding.

Yeah, this would essentially make it so the rewards system was based on something more like zapping hot content (zapped a lot that day) rather than top (created and zapped a lot that day).

I also want to be able to search for the top content created during specific periods.

Another example would be that when I wake up - at wrong hours now that I'm stuck-ish on the wrong side of the Atlantic - hot is dominated by boosts and ~Stacker_Sports comments regarding whatever games were on the night before in the US, until the rest of Europe wakes up. While I think it good that those are now making it into hot under no-trust-november rules, it still happens that I miss things I find interesting because front-page real estate is limited. Before, I was lucky to have similar interests as k00b so I didn't have to do it that often, but I find myself clicking top first thing in the morning, rather than reading hot, much more often.

I know k00b is liking the removal of trust, but I think it's nice to at least have it for personalized feeds.

overall i think it's an improvement. it's much more transparent now why one item is above another. Even if dirty fiat sports dominates the front pages during gametime

Doesn't Top already do that?

Yes, I think my reaction came more from what you said that if we assert that new post benefit is limited to recent, then I think it would imply that that changes?

reply

To be perfectly pedantic about it, new posts don't have any advantages for Top either, Top just filters them by time range and it just so happens that the default filter is for the last 24 hours.
