I really don't mean to be rude but seeing these types of posts on hackernews bothers me. I really would like to see us keep the scope of the news we post within tech. I feel like I'm seeing more non tech articles - like this one - on the site. It frustates me because when I want to escape the sort of articles that propagate through anger or outrage it becomes increasingly more difficult. We don't need another reddit. Please consider the type of community we want to have.
- rezonant 5y agodid you decide to make your account and post for the first time just to decide what's best for the community that you are definitely part of?
- red87 5y agodoes the venom and snark make you feel good on the inside? no, I typically don't participate in online discussions because of people like you.
- rezonant 5y agoYou don't have to read the non-tech articles if you don't want to, and you are certainly welcome to participate on HackerNews! But "Please consider the type of community we want to have." is a little rich if "community" only means reading the articles. Perhaps the word you are looking for is "product" or more charitably "experience"?
- mtnGoat 5y agoscroll past. just like the rest of us do. i think complaining about posts is also against the community standards here.
