> It's a semi-noob illusion The evidence provided for this is example comments from 10+ years ago complaining that HN was becoming Reddit way back then. However, Reddit 10+ years ago was very different from Reddit today. It is arguably(?) much worse today. HN may be turning into Reddit continuously, it's just that Reddit keeps moving the goal posts.
