Hacker News Disappoints
- bslatkin 14y agoOriginally titled after my Tweet: "Hacker News has gone to shit; help me find a good editor for a replacement" https://twitter.com/haxor/status/225088232721879040 https://twitter.com/haxor/status/225088232721879040 Just another example of how things are done around here
- bslatkin 14y agoHaha.. They've changed the title to this post 3 times. Good going, guys! Edit: Anyways, if you want to repurpose this thread for constructive criticism that's fine. I'd rather this site fixed things instead of searching for a replacement.

- bslatkin 14y agoDiBona's take is interesting https://plus.google.com/u/0/116969159384245484847/posts/Rb44dM1tg5u https://plus.google.com/u/0/116969159384245484847/posts/Rb44...
- sktrdie 14y agoSubjective. All the things you marked as not interesting were actually quite interesting to me. Sure, maybe the content has changed a bit from being completely startup centric, to more generic lifestyle subjects. But the quality is still quite high in my opinion.
- bslatkin 14y agoIf you want to read about general lifestyle why aren't you just reading GQ? There's nothing wrong with high quality posts about that. But "Hacker News" isn't the right venue.
- arjn 14y agoIn general I agree with the OP...somewhat. Over the last few months or maybe a year or so, I feel an increase in less interesting articles. Maybe there are just too many people and submitters now on HN and its getting diluted. (All just my opinion of course)
