I'm getting sick and tired of baseless comments like this being the top comment.
I want to read about the real topic, additional information, different insights, ... a real discussion about the original article, link, project.
Too many discussions are getting hijacked and turned into irrelevant clickbait and a waste of time.
- ck2 5y agoHN could maybe offer a workaround to this by allow the reddit-like three option sort, "top new controversial" (then also allow per account default sort setting?) I vaguely remember HN pages are built statically though, so three versions would have to be built? That might have been many years ago and has changed. If voting weight cannot be trusted anymore in the world we live in, then change the sort.
- striking 5y agoEmail hn@ycombinator.com, then, and let them know what you think. They're the ones with the power to change it.
- LAC-Tech 5y agoWhat was there to discuss about the original article? It was a series of very short instructions on how to access the BBC in English, Russian, and Ukrainian. Maybe you can be the change you want to see in the world and start one yourself.
