216 points on this post with 89 comments is pretty conclusive
Lots of things with piles of points and comments are poor HN submissions. Happens all the time and is not in any way conclusive. That's basically the explanation, for there to be some kind of conclusion you'd have to make an argument that isn't about points and comments of a thing that's on the fp. Everything on the fp gets points and comments.
- mandmandam 2y agoI didn't want to "quote the old magic" to you, but this story is squarely within the HN guidelines. It's interesting, stimulating, important, tech related, true, timely etc. The argument that a games company losing their entire staff to resignations isn't 'suitable' because "most company personnel changes are not particularly interesting" is false equivalence. This thread is full of comments describing what people are finding interesting about this. Dismissing that with 'every fp story has comments' is a really odd and (dare I say) out-of-character move.
- bschmidt1 2y agoI agree with you and I know a lot of other people do too but are afraid to speak up in support. Really sick of the arbitrary censorship on this site.
