Doesn't this apply to any social network feed? Most of the time people (or companies) just want your attention and LinkedIn is still a social network, therefore it makes total sense.
- kuu 6y agoWell, I would say HN seems interesting in most cases, not only some attention grabbing platform. Don't you agree?
- outime 6y agoI get what you mean but I didn't say that attention-grabbing platforms are incompatible with (at least some) interesting content. Also, HN doesn't have many dark patterns (or any?) and I'd not consider it a typical social network like FB, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc but more like a forum. But even if we consider this place a social network, comparing it to any of the typical social networks is futile IMHO.
- fakedang 6y agoThe difference between HN and any other social platform can be summarized in one word - dang.
