"Chink in one's armor" for YC when anything from ZH oozes its way onto the front page.
- mellow2020 6y agoWell, there's other sources for this, becauses it's actually true. I wonder what "armor" you think HN even has as inane tripe like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24426407 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24426407 is glued to #1, while something that actually matters and pertains to the responsibilities of this crowd is, once again, penalized.
- Tehchops 6y agoI'm not arguing that the story itself isn't frontpage newsworthy... just we should not be validating that particular source with pageviews/clicks. ZH has pushed Coronavirus misinformation, Seth Rich conspiracies, and openly labels itself as "far-right libertarian". Of course this unsurprisingly attracts some slice of the HN demographic :)
