sure but HN has downvotes that act as deterrence to content that is not acceptable to others unlike any other platform where you can only say yayy but not disagree. that has its problems.

i write a comment on HN, then another later. occasionally i check the replies in the comments page that makes me answer but the thread does not go too deep for me. i do not spend "that" much time here.

Those negative thumb downs have great value, i have gotten so much downvotes over the years, that loss in karma has shaped my thinking, i am honestly grateful of those downvotes to clearly shape my thinking. But it largely depends on the kind of forum you are in, thankfully HN is a platform where a mojority saner minds prevail.
