Everything you say can be true and it doesn't change the fact the HN would be worse because of it.
HN is a place I come to escape the rest of the internet.
I hope it doesn't get ruined by politics, like everything else in the world seems to have been.
- Kye 4y agoThere was a busy front page thread for each of Obama's election wins, Trump's First, and Biden's win. There were numerous busy threads on the Obama campaign's use of technology leading up to his first election. I'd say it's working out okay ~15 years into the experiment of unkilling certain historically significant political threads.
- time0ut 4y agoThere are usually a few threads discussing major or controversial political news. Dang is good about collapsing them and keeping things isolated there. It is pretty easy to avoid these threads and they fall off the front page quickly. I don’t think they add much to HN, but I like to skim them as this community’s take is the least biased.
