I guess it would weaken my point if you were posting on this subject on both HN and 4chan now. My point was intended as a rhetorical one to highlight that people generally post to HN because they're looking for a certain kind of audience or quality of discussion that you won't find anywhere near as consistently on less moderated places like 4chan.
- Lammy 6y agoYep, I do participate in HN because I find value in its unique audience and discussion quality, and I do think the moderation is necessary to maintain those unique qualities. I also appreciate the enrichment and access to totally-new ideas that I get from existing in other worlds with differing norms like 4chan/9chan. HN is a well-maintained and enjoyable bubble, but still a bubble. They supplement each other more than they compete, and I feel more able to tolerate the moderated world thanks to the less-moderated ones.
