Great idea, I can't tell you how tiring I'm finding the one-dimension "trending" trend as it provides exactly no value to me.
But this has always been a pretty challenging thing to make work so I appreciate the attempt.
Does the front page rank by overall votes? Seems to me it might make sense to randomize by diversity of link upvote/downvotes (maybe the more divisive links?) as I'm having a hard time finding stories I'm interested in and they do seem rather too similar.
Thanks! There's no front page; every page is unique. Before you vote the page is a random selection of the most popular stuff. After voting you also get related links. It'll need more users before it'll really shine.
