As more and more teenagers flood Reddit, more and more young adults flood HN. ...and so the cycle of quality boom-bust of the threads continues and we see more knee-jerk emotional content like this.
Where is everyone going next so I can stay ahead of the game?
- fred_is_fred 7y agoI've read your comment several time and have yet to make actual sense of this. Is your assertion that the parent comment is bad because it's made by a "young adult"?
- koheripbal 7y agoSomewhat. My assertion is that HN quality has dropped significantly in the last year. This post is an advocacy post - it lacks objectivity and rigor. My additional assertion is that this is happening more on HN because the demographic of HN is changing to a younger crowd - and my final theory is that that is happening because more young adults are coming here in an effort to escape the further demographic changes on Reddit.
