Ask HN: How do you monitor the threads on HN you are engaging with?

4•spacemnstr42069•1h ago

I keep finding myself commenting on threads and then forgetting to check back. HN doesn’t have built in notifications, so I’m curious how people here actually keep track of discussions they are part of.

What’s the best workflow you’ve found to follow active conversations without missing replies?

Comments

I click on "threads" once a day to see if there is anything I should reply to.

You can get an RSS feed of replies to a particular user (you!) here: https://hnrss.github.io/

Then you can check your RSS feeds for new "articles" in that feed (new replies to your comments).

That's better than checking your threads because you'll only see replies that are new since the last time you checked.

So it ends up being similar to an email workflow.
