I disagree with this. I think one of the issues I’m running into is that it’s clear to me that there won’t always be something to read in the future. I remember Digg, and other forums. And when it failed there was Reddit for niche topics. And then Reddit has been steadily going downhill for years now, and I see an era soon where niche communities just won’t be on Reddit. It’s already happening. The forums I used to go to are dead. The Reddit communities are dying or dead, and there’s just no communities any more to talk and discuss stuff. It’s hidden away on discord where I can’t find it, or on Facebook or TikTok where things come and go and there’s search. Google is also barely useable for certain topics too. I don’t even know where to go and to find other people that are doing cool stuff other than HN and maybe Twitter, if those die it’s sort of over? Not saving articles and just relying on them coming to you through places like HN or Reddit or being available on google was great in the heyday but it’s not clear to me that that will continue. The clearest example is for more illicit things like piracy and dark net markets. Stuff that can’t really be hosted on Facebook. If you didn’t save certain information or articles, that information is probably just gone forever
