I like it! Suggestions:

* Clarify relationship with https://hckrnews.com/

* Don't put the settings in localStorage, use URL params. That has a lot of usability improvements including being able to share the state, bookmark it, and heads up the current state. Use Rison [1] for the URL params to make it nice to read.

* The settings overview is too terse. What does something like "Timeline, Top 20, Day, Comments"? Maybe you could turn that into a concise natural language sentence.

Makes sense i'll give it a shot.

Thanks for the suggestions, open to more if you think of any!
