Nobody is forcing you to use it OR help its development. Why do you even care?

  I care because the stories are spamming up HN. You can't downvote stories, and flagging them would probably be considered inappropriate.

    Can't you just... like... not read them? On every visit to HN I click 3-4 links tops, but you don't see me complaining in the comments section of the other 26 :)

      Yes I can, but if I do then the site will only get worse. http://lesswrong.com/lw/c1/wellkept_gardens_die_by_pacifism/ http://lesswrong.com/lw/c1/wellkept_gardens_die_by_pacifism/

        Interesting link, thank you! But I don't see how it's relevant - this is a site about start-up news and Bitcoin is exactly where the opportunities for start-ups are. It's not like they're posting porn or something - probably the next PayPal will come from someone reading these links and comments here. Although I admit that sometimes there are too many links about politics on HN, but you can say politics is also kind of relevant to the start-up world, especially when it concerns policy decisions about technology. In conclusion, I'm yet to see an irrelevant link on HN. The algorithm works as advertised IMHO.
