By the comments here it looks like 8/10 people on HN just comment without actually reading the article itself. Google aren't scrapping the whole idea of balloons, they just found a better way and faster way to make it a profitable business.
- ronilan 10y agoIt just looks this way because 2/10 manage to guess what the article is about.
- purple-again 10y agoReddit trained me to comments first then article if it's worth it. I imagine it's the same for a lot of people. Far too often the top comment is telling you all about why the article you were about to read is complete bullshit.
- scorpioxy 10y agoI'm the same but that's because of the so-many bullshit articles I had to read before figuring this out. Now I read the comments first and learned to stay away from certain sources with frequent low quality content. Also, this happens when you give hackers imaginary points; they want to game the system.
