Interesting: My perception is the complete opposite, and I've actually found myself using Twitter (with Tweetbot) for tech news much more than HN lately. I think this is because Twitter uses the people I choose to follow to decide what to show me, whereas HN uses everybody, and to make a story popular with everybody it generally has to make people angry/mad/happy. That means that HN seems to have more and more polarizing stories reaching the front page, whereas Twitter seems more focused.
