Ask HN: Is there more, like HN?
I wonder if there are other networks like Hackernews in the web. Maybe more language and/or location specific?
I stumbled across HN quite a while ago and following it constantly since then. It is fascinating how this network made me a better coder, get more creative and even quit my job and start an own company together with a friend.

- chmielewski 15y agoAny specific language or platform you're looking for? If you were to say perl, I'd say to have a look at perlmonks.org, reddit.com/r/perl, and others. Which other networks are you familiar with? Slashdot or StackOverflow? Maybe take it to IRC and idle a few channels relevant to your interests?

- JoeCortopassi 15y agoNot sure this should be downvoted. HN is definitely more intellectual. Reddit might have intellectual parts, but it's mostly a meme engine with random interesting facts
- hendrix 15y agoIMO reddit is 90% 4chan 10% HN/stackoverflow/mathoverflow.
- vertr 15y agoReddit has a lot of serious subreddits related to HN. I Like ruby, javascript, rails, startups, programming, webdev, and web_design. Just go reddit.com/r/redditname
- gamechangr 15y agoI second reddit.com Additionally, stackoverflow.com has really informative ongoing posts that are language specific
