What other places are like HN? I can't think of a single one, much less multiple others.
- baud147258 2y agoI'd say the comment section of the website acoup.blog (which have been linked a few times on HN, that's how I discovered it), the commenters usually give the impression they've read the article. Of course it can also be due to the fact that it's a blog comment section, not those of a link-sharing site.
- DarknessFalls 2y agoSlashdot is at least part of the same haplogroup, if not a close cousin.
- dredmorbius 2y agoThere are some HN-alikes, such as Lobste.rs, which appears to be ~10% the size but often carries similar article selections. <https://lobste.rs/ https://lobste.rs/> There is Tildes.net, which was inspired by Reddit (founder is an ex-Reddit employee). <https://tildes.net/ https://tildes.net/> There remains Metafilter, which continues to have exceptionally high S/N: <https://www.metafilter.com/ https://www.metafilter.com/> Individual blogs and podcasts occasionally have useful discussion. Mostly the mode seems to be waning in my experience.
