Congrats on building and shipping! I love how "at home" the styling feels.
I searched for `Excel` since that's a topic I care about and tend to follow frequently.
The first ("most relevant") link is a post with 1 point and 0 comments from 2020. The second link has 1 comment and 2 points, from 2017.
The top two links on Algolia's search have about 1000 points each and are way more topical.
I tried to hit "Back" to make this comment, and saw the site broke my browser's navigation. I was forced to right click on "Back" (or spam the back button) to get back here... so not a great experience, overall
- the version without search as you type and JS at https://hnnojs.trieve.ai/ has a more normal back button
- Algolia ranks by points by default while we are ranking by relevance score which is the difference. You can order our results by points if you want to with the order by select component that says "relevance".
We went back and forth on making points sorting default and ended up deciding against it, but maybe we should have. Our thinking was that since it's focused on "discovery" it was worth prioritizing relevance, but I can see how it can feel the result quality isn't as great. HN is really good at highlighting interesting links.
