I can't argue with your experiences, but I've heard from many people (overwhelmingly women), that they hate this place and no longer visit.

- DoreenMichele 8y agoI appear to be the highest ranked woman here. My old handle, Mz, was briefly on the leaderboard. Posting as openly female here has always been challenging. It's better than it used to be. Among other things, I see more women with more than 2k karma than I used to. There is still room for improvement. My feeling is that YC is remarkably inclusive without really making a big deal out of it. My feeling is the HN mods are interested in making HN more inclusive. I do realize there are significant challenges. I don't think it is due to HN being a bastion of toxicity.
