Plenty on non-tech articles make it to the front page.
Check out the HN Guidelines here: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
The relevant portion:
Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think something is spam or offtopic, flag it by going to its page and clicking on the "flag" link. (Not all users will see this; there is a karma threshold.) If you flag something, please don't also comment that you did.
- melling 12y agoNo, here's the relevant portion: "Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. "
- bequanna 12y agoHuh? Your original post is not appropriate, that is what I am referencing. Ugh. This isn't complicated. The guidelines state: Don't comment about how an article isn't appropriate for HN, just flag it.
- melling 12y agoI flagged it immediately. Sorry, if people are too stupid to realize that they're just shooting the shit on politics all day, I'm gonna say something. Go to reddit.
