>> This discussion about HN link quality is old and comes up frequently. While this is true, I've been reading HN for about 5 years. The first two lurking, the last three actually posting and commenting. From what I remember, HN used to be very technical and startup oriented, which is what got me hooked. Over the past two years or so, I'm seeing a lot of articles on things which are not directly to tech or startups. I've accepted the fact I have to do a lot more filtering and searching to find articles I'm actually interested in. Not a big deal, but something I didn't have to do 2 or 3 years ago.
