Show HN: A Hacker News client that only shows YouTube videos
hn-yt.netlify.appHey HN,
I wanted a way to quickly see only the YouTube videos being shared on Hacker News without wading through other links. So, I built this little tool. I used to use https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=youtube.com to check YouTube links, but it lacked thumbnails, so I built one just to do it.
It uses the hn.algolia.com API and is built with Nuxt3. I originally made this for myself but thought others might find it useful too.
You can try it here: https://hn-yt.netlify.app/
Happy to hear any feedback or suggestions!
I see a set of large images where the mouse cursor indicates they are clickable, but clicking in Firefox with AdBlock enabled doesn't work. I clicked for a long time and realized you're making fun of me?
PS: just use https://github.com/justinribeiro/lite-youtube
Sorry for that, it used to play videos before but was causing lag when loaded, so I had to disable it. Though there is a link to open in a new tab.
Yeah, using Nuxt Script which is similar to lite-youtube: https://scripts.nuxt.com/scripts/content/youtube-player
Great! I'm missing 'Most points Last Week', 'Most points Last Month' etc. That would be nice!
Cool. Was hacker-tube not available?
I prefer a denser layout like 3 or 4 across. You could just have it auto-flow without side margins, then zooming smaller would naturally just do that.
It is available thanks for suggestion a cool name!
Yeah will sure add a denser layout missed out on it as I use it on phone!
Done should be more denser now!
Nice thanks, beautiful!
Sometimes I do use the search functionality to find something to watch. But this looks neat.
This is great! Thank you.
Does it include those from comments? Great videos to be found there, too.
