HN culture is quite like a subreddit IMO. The only real difference is that it doesn't receive drive-by comments and upvotes from redditors browsing /r/all while not subscribed to it. This helps to curb most forms of reddit humor
However; check out subreddits like /r/rust, it looks a lot like HN
- Eupraxias 4y agoFor this reason alone, the two sites are night and day to me. I don't have the stomach or nerves for Reddit anymore, but I can sip the cool, refreshing draught that is HN all day long.
- hot_gril 4y agor/rust does look like HN, but that's for a very narrow topic. HN has broad topics with a niche user base. Wonder how much of a difference it makes that most HN users can't downvote.
