I realize how they get there, and I went the same path. However, it's also well established most people don't get past the headlines (or the first paragraph). I'm venturing a guess that most people that read HN currently work or have previously worked in tech. Same with the people that managed to get to it through reddit. I think it's also a somewhat safe guess that only people interested in the topic to begin with would be reading the article. It's the top bar ad on reddit for me right now (the topic, not this blog post). All the commentary is how people dislike it and are reverting to a prior version. Many are simply because it looks different. There is one person who talked tech, and in typical reddit fashion, he was called a corporate shill. In no way am I saying the content is bad, I just struggle to view it as any significant or meaningful marketing strategy.
