I hope not. I like HN just the way it is. It's a simple text message board with good moderation.

We don't need to pile on more features for the sake of it. There are plenty of communities for DIY projects and AMAs.

I really like the plain structure, but I also noted that sometimes it is difficult for the small projects to reach the front page. Please remember to go to https://news.ycombinator.com/newest and upvote interesting small projects.

And https://news.ycombinator.com/shownew, which is much less well known. It's linked from https://news.ycombinator.com/show at the top.

This is great. Is there a new for Ask HN and Tell HN as well?

Nope, it's on the list to add that. Ask and Tell are the same though, so this would just be /asknew.

Maybe adding more filters at the top is useful, but one of HN's strengths is how flat it is. If it was divided into a ton of subforums it would lead to some core boards receiving the majority of traffic while other ones becoming isolated satellites.
