The first release of this HackerTube index ships with the full catalog.

  • 6,454 videos from roughly 39,834 Hacker News recommendations, spanning 2007–2026
  • 16 areas and 150 topics with dedicated browse pages
  • Full-text search across titles, channels, topics and tags
  • Per-video pages with HN mention counts, recommenders, and first/last year
  • Sorting by recommendation strength, discussion volume, upload year and views

Playback stays on YouTube. The index adds structure and search, not hosting.
