er... no. Calling out that kind of thing (especially ignorance to a trend) is exactly what the right thing to do is.
Awareness of a problem is the first step in combatting it after all.
- JadeNB 11y agoYes, that's what I said: > If you don't like the increasing Reddit-ness of HN, then pointing out that HN isn't Reddit is the right thing to do to stop the trend. That "isn't" might have been a bit confusing, but, with parentheses, I meant: > If you don't like the increasing Reddit-ness of HN, then (pointing out that HN isn't Reddit) is the right thing to do to stop the trend. My point was that, when BinaryIdiot said "Um, this isn't Reddit", you said (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10433352 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10433352): > It's way more reddit than it used to be. It happened to Reddit, it's already almost completely happened here. This place is basically a decent subreddit in culture now. Kind of sad. I took this to mean that you thought that BinaryIdiot's chiding was inappropriate, or useless.
