Oh no. It's reddit all over again.
- david 19y agoComplete with people complaining every time a link they don't like gets on the front page for a while.
- mynameishere 19y agoComplete with self-obsessed meta-discussions. Okay, a variation on the thing I've been saying for a while now: When a link gets into the top twenty, THEN give us a down arrow.
- myoung8 19y agoIt's on topic. It's funny. I don't see the problem here...
- BrandonM 19y agoI think people are complaining because xkcd is a high-quality site that everyone knows about (and likely reads already). In other words, just about every comic on the site could be submitted here, but most of us refrain from doing that. Then again, the same thing could be said for PG's essays, but I guess in that case, there's always some kind of discussion to go along with them, whereas there's not much to say about a comic.

- Goladus 19y agoxkcd is updated 3 times a week on schedule. That there is a new one is not news. (This one is at least sort of about hacking.) PG posts maybe 2 essays in a month. It is news when a new essay is posted. That goes for many bloggers who only update periodically.
- dbrush 19y agoI wonder if some of the people complaining about notable items appearing on the front page of Reddit are some of the same people complaining about non-notable items appearing on obscure pages within Wikipedia.
- Tichy 19y agoI find that many blogs in my newsreader I still read mostly through YC news submissions. I don't read all the blogs in my reader on a regular basis, and somehow I count on YC news to notify me if something especially interesting appears in them.
