A user on Hacker News asked why the Ask HN page shows only 14 posts, suspecting there used to be more with a button at the bottom. The discussion reveals that not enough posts on /asknew or /newest are getting upvoted to meet the threshold for /ask. This has been happening for a while, and the solution is unclear.
Some users manually upvote promising posts on /asknew to help them reach /ask, but it's time-consuming. Others suggest checking /asknew for the uncurated list, as documented in the Lists link. There's also mention that /ask may be missing from the lists because it's in the navbar.
The user wondered if there's a full list of HN's lists, including personal comments. Comments suggest using the contact link to email hn@ycombinator.com about bugs, as the page seems to show non-Ask content. One user notes seeing 15 posts, logged in or not, and the site loading slowly.
A comment humorously suggests "Go commit a few felonies and get me internet Gold++" and mentions vibecoding without review, observing bugs across X and Cursor.
