Amazon, Apple and Google Cut Off Parler

If you’ve been here 12 hours you probably haven’t gotten the chance to participate much in an actual tech discussion. This weekend has been all political in nature.

During the week when more people are working, more tech focused news/projects tend to be shared and discussed.

Give it another week and then decide if it’s all groupthink.

I've browsed here before but only just registered to participate in discussions on this topic. I've seen far more nuanced discussions and sincere consideration of both sides on HN than most other platforms.

I still find it alarming that so many people perceive these actions as sincere attempts at harm-reduction. Regardless, it is a pleasant to see both sides being represented in the discussion.

The user you’re replying to was banned for creating an account to troll. I wouldn’t consider their comment in good faith.

I have been here for a few years, there are definitely some areas of groupthink. HN knows it's tech, but it's politics aren't generally as well thought through.
