Yes, would be very useful.<p>Maybe the date time (UTC) like <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;front?day=2016-01-26T08" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;front?day=2016-01-26T08</a> to view the frontpage as it looked like at 8 am UTC that day. ( ISO date and time: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;ISO_8601" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;ISO_8601</a> )<p>About the &quot;fall off the front page before many readers see them&quot; problem: that&#x27;s a serious problem, as the discussion is what makes HN such a great place. Maybe reduce the options to &quot;downvote&quot; a news. It should be enough to upvote a news. If a news fall of the frontpage because certain members don&#x27;t like it, they shouldn&#x27;t be able to downvote such news in the first place.
