Hacker News RSS
Follow Hacker News without filling up your RSS reader. Here are two daily digest feeds: one for the Front Page and one for Show HN. Instead of a separate item for every story as in the official Hacker News RSS feed, these two feeds send a single post a day with the previous day's stories, points and discussion links. Read by over 1,000 subscribers.
Front Page RSS
The top 60 stories from the Hacker News front page, in the order Hacker News ranked them. Each story links to the article and its HN discussion, along with its point total when the feed was built. Updates daily around 14:00 UTC.
Or subscribe in one click on Feedly or Inoreader.
Show HN RSS
Every Show HN post submitted that day, sorted by points: usually 80 to 200 projects, including the many that never reach the front page. Updates daily around 14:30 UTC.

How Is This Different from HN's Own RSS?
Hacker News's own feed only shows what is on the front page right now, and real-time feeds push each story as it appears. Our two feeds each send one post a day with the previous day's stories, so you can catch up in one sitting.
How It Works & Automation
- Unfiltered rankings: the front page feed comes straight from Hacker News's own record of past front pages, in its order, and the Show HN feed from Hacker News search, sorted by points. No custom algorithm, filtering or re-ranking of our own.
- Ready for AI agents and workflows: each feed publishes one post a day at the same time, which makes it easy to plug into AI agents, Slack reading-list bots, Zapier, IFTTT, Readwise Reader and email digests.
