- alex1138 2mo agoUnaccountable flagging is a massive problem here and it's amazing the site doesn't have more protections for astroturfing Comments that people don't like, which are clearly not just "spam" get flagged all the time. It's ridiculous
- tstrimple 2mo agoMany seem to consider it a feature. Including the mods. Certainly feels organized at times.
- johnnyanmac 2mo agoIntersting that the title was also changed from the current top level header: >xAI Ignores Laws And Profits: Rules For Thee, Not For Me To what it is now, as if this is just healthy competition.
- alex1138 2mo agoI grow increasingly skeptical of HN's "moderation"
- Freedom2 2mo agoThe moderation here typically leans to whatever generates the most curious discussion, rather than sticking with inflammatory titles, even if it's what the author intends. In some way, I trust HN to become the "editors" of the internet in a sense, as they have everyone's best interest in heart of course. As the legendary PG once wrote: "What are you excessively curious about — curious to a degree that would bore most other people? That's what you're looking for"
- johnnyanmac 2mo ago> In some way, I trust HN to become the "editors" of the internet in a sense, as they have everyone's best interest in heart of course. That's a dangerous mentality. Comments can be removed or lagged, but never edited. I feel the same about headlines. It's ultimate an artistic choice and I don't like the feeling of someone altering a headline to soften the blow. Especially to a trillion dollar company. >What are you excessively curious about — curious to a degree that would bore most other people? Certainly not this need to control the narrative.
