Sounds like the path reddit took. Doubt HN will turn into it in perpetuity but I could already see some of that* leaking in the last 2-3 years, although thankfully it is harshly reigned in by moderation and fellow posters alike. *by that I refer to comment chains just making bland puns, joining in threads for no reason other than saying something, even if it adds nothing and at times is straight up incorrect, etc.
