I never use this section, though.
Is it based on browser? I'm running Google Chrome.
Also, the site is loading really slow for me now.
The answer is that not enough posts are getting upvoted on https://news.ycombinator.com/asknew (or https://news.ycombinator.com/newest) to clear the small threshold necessary to make it to /ask.
This has been happening for a while. Not sure what the solution is. Sometimes I go to /asknew myself and upvote the ones that seem good enough to make it to /ask, if not the frontpage, but that's a manual operation and I rarely have time.
I suppose we could fill in the empty slots with posts from /asknew but then not sure how we would pick them...
Is it a growing pattern or cyclical in some way? Does it need a solution or will it work itself out in time?
edit: just noticed /ask probably isn't there because it's in the navbar, lol. but still
What I wondered: Is there another list for e.g. my own comments? I would like to have a page with all my comments, so I could search in them. Is there already a way to instruct HN to provide this, or do I need to make my own crawler?

unless I'm misunderstanding what you're after.
