Apparently it takes only 3 up-votes to get an article on the front page. Can we please hear less about this company for like a day even? It's as though Hacker News must examine every single element of this case. I can see certain articles or topics being defended on the grounds that it is of tertiary interest to hackers+entrepreneurs, but this has nothing to do with any of that.
- mrduncan 16y agoThe best way to accomplish that is to up-vote or submit other articles you think are more worthy of the front page.
- nhooey 16y agoI think that will just result in more articles hitting the front page, and also the RSS feed. It will certainly reduce the proportion of Apple articles on Hacker News, but the absolute number of Apple articles is the problem. Right now I'd say there are too many crap articles on Hacker News, and far too many duplicates. How many articles have you seen where the first few comments are all similar denunciations of the article in question?
