I feel the same. Comments used to be more thoughtful and nuanced, and I often found comments that changed my perspective on things. Now so many comments are massively negative and sweepingly generalize in uninteresting ways, eg just to pick a random example from replies to this current post:
"Every offering they have is worse today than it was a year ago."
HN should be better than this.

It's like, goddamn, y'all can stop bootlicking for companies already, as I know most of you are employee class rather than owner class.
