HN has always had a mix of people. There’s a distinct portion of people on here who trend toward center right and libertarian ideals. There’s a smaller but still solid segment who are more leftists who also generally oppose big authority in certain ways (some Govt stuff, big tech), but otherwise don’t have much overlap with the former group. I’m of the latter group, but it’s plain HN and even Slashdot in the old days, always had these sort of divides. You’ll never find a place that won’t have these sort of divides unless you specifically go to a site for only your political views.
