Been on HN off and on for about 9 years with different accounts. I do believe the comments are getting more difficult to parse (find the good vs noise) but still the best site I have found - is hand curated links and people willing to offer solid advice given a question in the comments. I use Reddit from time to time but only for pure time killing purposes. I have learned more from the comments on HN than any course, book or (other) web site. Hopefully it will stay that way for years to come. A smaller community could offer more quality responses but less chance of finding the person who has the answer to your question.
