Unlike some other people, I agree with what you're saying about how HN has changed. I guess the fundamental question is whether to adapt HN to the userbase changes or to try to keep HN from changing at all (probably with stronger moderation). My preference is for the latter (of course, I'm not a mod, so that's easy for me to say), and I do think that's kind of how it's been handled so far...but I think the former isn't a terrible option if the mods become overwhelmed.
