New season, new features: Spring is here and so are our updates! |
Hey there, Hackers 👋
Last couple of months have been filled with new developments: from writers’ features such as Youtube Transcript and Twitter thread embeds to readers’ features, like a flagging system, GitHub integration and story annotation. Continue reading and be amazed by all our new shiny improvements added to the platform since our last product update on December 31st! |

📀Transcript Your YouTube:If you’re reading a story and notice a little thumbnail and it’s related to a Youtube Video, then you just met our youtube transcript feature. This scrollable feature will work in parallel to the video embedded, kinda like captions, with clickable timestamps that allow you to navigate to whichever part of the video you wish.
✨ GIF Away: HackerNoon’s image uploader has a new option: Giphy. We know you love GIFs and so do we - so, what better feature to help you brighten up your stories and comments? It doesn't stop at GIFs thought! You can now also use images in your comments on HackerNoon.
🤗 New Sign-up Flow: We got news for wannabe Hackers: our sign-up flow has been extra simplified! If you want to interact with HackerNoon stories - bookmark, comment, annotate, among other actions - or write a new one, you'll be taken to the sign-up page and asked to add an email and password and... done! You'll be assigned a handle and led back to the action you intended to do before the sign-up page.
🚩 Red Flags? Report Them: No one likes a plagiarist, so we’ve opened a tattle tale system on HackerNoon anyone can use: select text on any story and hit the flag button on the tooltip to flag any plagiarism issue; add your comment and submit. Your report will be reviewed by our editors and a decision will be made according to HackerNoon policies. This feature can also be used in the case of wrong information, wrong translation, broken image or any other text issue.
🗣️ Title Me Easy:We added a headline generator for you to use when you’re out of inspiration or just want help brainstorming ideas. To use it, just go to the title space, as you’d normally do, and click the lightbulb icon to get an automated headline for your story. You’re welcome!
🍭 Themes Meet Top Nav:Our cool homepage themes have been beautifying your screen for a long time, but now, they’ll also embellish your whole top nav. Just pick a theme as you usually would and watch it spill from the homepage to the rest of the navigation options.
