Sincerly, I do exactly that and others also do that. But because upvoting is democratic, it means that the majority will have another opinion. We lived with that right? But the HN audience changed thank to it's popularity. Upvoting is no quality guarantee. I could throw up an algorithm that picks higher quality content and flags it as such, but that's overkill for HN. Sub-Threads would solve the problem that likeminded people like each other's stuff oly when they like it. The theory is that quality per information in a randomly organized source cannot be measured democratically. btw: I'm writing my thesis in a field of information management
