hmmm maybe just an icon like we have for polls and bounties.
sox made the icon already
~hyperlinks is for anything at least mildly interesting that you can find on the web!
I believe the issue is that many news links are posted on SN without any comments, ~hyperlinks can’t fix this
ahh good point so I can just spam links for the hell of it
links' description should be mandatory to fix this issue
i don't think i'd support mandatory link description. Sometimes a pure link post can have value.
A simple label to advertise the fact that the post contains no text would be the way to go, imo.
so one knows before clicking, and if one knows there's no content can click directly the link.
Make sense.
there's a territory for it now ~hyperlinks. Regardless I suspect stackers will continue posting hyperlinks everywhere anyway
Yeah hmm
good idea.
Idea for Stacker News user interface.
I hate to click on a SN item and it turns out to be just a link with a zero character introduction.
If these were flagged in some way (like character count) for the post intro I could just skip those posts.
