Is there some place where I can see the data that backs up this influx of users? I ask because I believe you because I’ve felt that way too recently, but I’d love to verify it.
- djbusby 3y agoUse the HN API and just pull all the users, it's got created date, then feed to your favorite BI tool.
- kevin_thibedeau 3y agoHow many are bots being crafted into sockpuppet accounts to silence damaging information.
- remote_phone 3y agoYou can’t downvote until 500 karma so it doesn’t matter. HN has voting ring detection as well.
- djbusby 3y agoI regularly pull HN data from the API. Any idea what kind of pattern I should look for? Like? Old+low karma? Maybe I could use GPT to analyze someone comment history?
- sillysaurusx 3y agoSure is: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34110321 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34110321 Hacker News Insight. I hope it’s a measurement error, because the spike is literally a J.
- soundsgoodtome 3y agoDunno. It does feel as if discourse on HN has become less thoughtful and more angry/Reddit-esque…
- SecretDreams 3y agoWell, there's a whole HN subreddit that exists solely to post HN threads and encourage redditors to visit HN for more discussion. It's still somewhat nascent, but with more high profile articles posted, you'll see more people coming over. Fortunately, the UI here is not good enough to probably hold redditor interest in the long term.
