Hacker news is probably the only site I would pay for. It seems to me there are pretty good free alternatives to just about everything else.

- baddox 19y agoYou, or someone else, could very easily create a free alternative to it. Hacker news is good because it's still relatively obscure. ANY social news site that is full-featured and doesn't censor its users will almost invariably start out great then begin it fail as more people find out about it.
