- klkvsk 11y agoSo when you'll find yourself looking at front page full of "woo look at my helloworld app btw here's our website"-like posts, would you still think the same? Every tolerance should have its limits.
- bmelton 11y agoUnlikely, but considering we have a Show HN section that is specifically intended for that, which garners its own interest, and competes against the other, non-Show articles for front page space, if the front page were filled with Show HN content, it would either be due to a slow news day, or because people were cranking out worthwhile-enough apps to merit front page supremacy. Either way, your parade of horribles is unlikely to occur, or be that horrible if it were. To each their own though.
