It is to me. I've got ~9 HN accounts over 1k and I cycle to a new one every so often because that is how little I care about the features that karma-gated.
If you take HN seriously enough to care, ummm, why?
No offense but this place largely acts like a more technically sophisticated Reddit with everything from downvoting factual statements to upvoting provably false opinion. That doesn't include the inherent bias in the design towards YC companies and so forth.
- Grishnakh 11y agoHow long have you been on here? I've been on here a few months I think, and I'm just a little over 400. I'm still a long way from 1000, and that's just one account. So to me, karma is pretty important; AFAIC, I'm just a second-class citizen here at this point. I do agree about your comparison to Reddit. Honestly, if my workplace didn't block Reddit, I probably wouldn't spend much time here.
- fweespee_ch 11y ago> How long have you been on here? This account got over 300 karma in 20 days. ~60-90 days is how long it usually takes me to hit 1000+. On and off since 2010. If you want, I could probably give you one of my 1000+ accounts. I'm not sure if that is against the guidelines tho. I suppose I could email dang. xD
- ionforce 11y agoWhy do you care to care so little? Why not just stick to one account?
- fweespee_ch 11y agoWhy would I care more? My HN account provides me with no financial benefits and exists purely for entertainment value.
