Try Reddit. You’ll see this exact topic discussed nearly indefinitely.
- happytoexplain 9mo agoI'm not interested in their discourse. Topics != community. But that's obvious - there's no reason to ignore that fact unless you're trying to insult somebody for petty reasons.

- happytoexplain 9mo agoWhy write like this on HN? It's the antithesis of its culture. Ironically, you're telling people to go somewhere else, which is itself an attitude that belongs in those other places.
- hippo22 9mo agoMy point is that there are plenty of other places to discuss this topic, e.g. Reddit and Facebook. The reason you don’t like those venues is because they produce conversation of the lowest common denominator. What you don’t realize is that’s really the only type of conversation you can have on this topic. So, by advocating for this topic on HN, you are brining those aspects of Facebook and Reddit which you dislike here.
- happytoexplain 9mo agoYou're wrong. I've had many valuable conversations on wedge topics on HN. (I'm not at the moment, which is unusual)
- direwolf20 9mo agoReddit doesn't allow discussion. Reddit threads are restatement of the opinions of the subreddit moderators. Any other comments are removed.
