I personally have gotten more value from comments on HN rather than the links themselves, but I guess it depends on the topics one is interested in. Comments are also helpful to avoid reading articles that are not so relevant or just plain wrong, which happens once in a while. My solution has been to just keep the links I want to open, but keep them for later (ideally, have less than 5 such links per day). A day after or so, if I still think it's relevant (beyond the title which is no longer new to me), I do open both the comment section and the link. This is especially effective when I find myself reading too much about certain topics that I know are toxic.
