Hope dang realizes early enough to do something about it. Most of the puns I see on hn are heavily downvoted though, at least.

Yes, I think there is a tidal pattern here, waxing and waning.

With the shutdown, netizens are seeking new places to engage.

In some threads, an unpleasant critical mass is reached. Signaling [to other users, not just to Dang] on the issue can be helpful, I'd like to do this while respecting the spirit of the rules.

Edit: Maybe I can quote the "substantive" guideline and flag the comment, but this might make me technically a hypocrite. I don't have a problem with a silly pun or response, but the culture of pun threads is cancer imo.
