I'm curious where people would go to as an alternative. I like looking at lobste.rs for non-AI stuff, but to post there you need to be invited by an existing member so it's not a perfect alternative.
- krapp 25d agoThe fediverse. Mastodon or Lemmy are viable alternatives if you curate well enough.
- nickthegreek 25d agoSo nothing to worry about then.
- krapp 25d agoUnless you're one of those people who only ever use HN and make it a part of your identity, sure. You can just leave for greener pastures. Or learn to care less.

- krapp 25d agoSecond on the list of things HN needs a solution to is fucking troll green accounts because it's getting ridiculous.
- AlexeyBelov 23d agoFor the last two years I've been noticing that most comments that are somewhat "strange" are from accounts that are either outright green, or just < 1 yo. By strange I mean comments I stopped at to check what's going on: mainly uncivil, overly hateful, etc. There are also users who create multiple accounts that are obviously tied to the same person, after the previous one gets banned. It's an epidemic.
- flexagoon 25d agotildes.net is also great, though it's not just for tech stuff
- latexr 25d agoThank you for that recommendation. I find the website hard to read¹, but the submissions themselves are as a whole much more interesting² than any HN homepage in the past year. ¹ But I can do something about that, as opposed to the submissions as a whole. ² Even if one of them is about someone’s son pooping in the toilet.
- otherayden 25d agoThanks for the recommendation, I had actually never heard of this but it looks promising
