The HN frontpage can feature stories that aren't that relevant to me, and some good ones don't get enough traction on the new submissions page. So I thought of building something that personalizes the stories you see.
This is done by getting the 500 newest and top stories and comparing them against your likes, building your own personalized homepage.
Also, when I find something I like, I usually want to explore similar stuff. So I created embeddings for 500k historical stories (all above 20 points) and added a 'similar' button that shows you the closest stories.
I thought of making this a web app, but I wanted something that integrated as seamlessly as possible with HN, so I decided on a browser extension.
I would love your feedback!
