No and I've complained many times about this. The front-page is consistently flooded with low-quality content. Lately the current pattern, with little varation, can be summed up to: - 10-minute Substack read about this new fancy bloatware, uhh.. framework/programming language/tech that you have to use otherwise you have to reconcile with not being a 10x rockstar programmer anymore and remain unemployed and die in poverty. - Look, another ChatGPT feature I came up with that, although does a tiny fraction of what you do in your job and with moderate error rate, will lead each and every one of you into extinction! - I found this paper on Nature where scientists cured this terminal illness for humans, in mice. Let me just omit this unimportant detail so I can make it to the frontpage. Also very often, the first n, and it's a large n, submissions on the front page pertain to the same subject. More niche and hacker-y in the traditional sense of what the website used to be in the past content receives little attention until it gets buried minutes later by some BS thing that can be grouped into one of the aforementioned categories. I used to say that HN is equivalent to Reddit as far as user-base intellect goes and if we go by the people participating on the large subreddits, I think both groups converge. This is evident from the current state of the front-page, namely sensationalist titled low-quality content being popular. However, if you're able to find small, in my estimation less than 30k subscribers allows for some sort of regulation/filtering out of overly-divergent content, communities about your niche subjects of interest, you're much better off there than here. HN has become a sort of entertainment type of thing for me, especially when it comes to the rhetoric the average HNer possesses when it comes to discussion, whether that concerns tech or not.
