Interesting to see that you built your own API "wrapper" https://github.com/ddxv/hackernews-api and storing them into a SQLite db. Seems that you run it once an hour so the stories are not updated that fast, especially /newest

What do you think about that? I guess it's probably much better to do it on device instead?

There are pros/cons :) The official firebase API is generally not very straightforward, but it allows realtime calls.
