the number of comments "back then" compared to now is a testament to how large HN and the tech ecosystem in general has grown.

Still had a good chuckle at someone commenting "This is one of those threads that just never dies" on a post with fewer than 40 comments, though.[0]

Part of it is an increase in the "tech" pie, but I think it's also a matter of people just becoming aware of Y-Combinator's Hacker News.

I was aware of Y-Combinator & Hacker News for a long time, but, for whatever reason, I never felt the need to make an account until 2020.
