I have no problem with the layout, design or lack of javascript, in fact i like it, but think I there are several real functional flaws in this site which are annoying.

Why is there no search function? You have to go to a third party site to search hacker news. Why can you only go back 3-4 pages of articles? Why is there no mention of the formatting available to you when writing a post? I think you have to browse the FAQs to get that data?

Even just now I had to login after writing this post and clicking "add comment", once I logged in the post I had written was no longer in the form! This is basic stuff guys.

Those are some issues which would be as true today as they were 10 or 20 years ago.
