Re:Why does a librarian own MetaFilter? by WesternWind on Saturday September 17, 2022 @10:48PM (#32883946)
There's an expectation on MeFi that people's lived experience trumps people's hot takes.

Whereas in a lot of communities, HN included, a majority viewpoint, even if it reflects a very shallow understanding, can be immensely popular.

To some extent that's just bike-shedding, and maybe that's okay on HN, but Metafilter covers a wider range of topics, and handles a lot of them well.
