Pretty much Twitter at this point for me. There's too much pessimism on HN when it comes to crypto. I appreciate criticism but Twitter has all the deep thinkers

- bidirectional 5y agoYes. Twitter is honestly much better for most topics, as long as you do a good job of curating who you follow. Practially any deep topic on HN is 90% just people with no expertise making pronouncements or asking for it to be explained to them. It's still worth reading for the occasional insight from the minority, though.
- sorenn111 5y agoAs someone whose asked for some technical papers to be explained a little, I find the expert digests on papers to be one of my favorite things on HN as well as experts who help put things in context
- Zealotux 5y agoI'm new to Twitter, always have been a Luddite when it comes to it but I'm curious to try, any advice on how to find quality accounts to follow?
- oauea 5y agoAh yes those 280 character tweets lend themselves extremely well to deep thought.
- mhluongo 5y agoQuite a condemnation that HN can't beat 280 character tweets on this topic, eh?
- oauea 5y agoThe topic of cryptocurrency scams? Don't need to a waste a lot of words on that thankfully :-)

- oauea 5y agoYes, I could've tweeted that. What's your point? Are you convinced my comment was an attempt at deep thought? I guess on twitter it might've been considered as such?
- navd 5y agoYou know people link to their blog posts and stuff right?
