Apple announces upgrade to App Store pricing

I see your reasoning but I disagree. HN articles don’t need to be unbiased. The reason being, if you want a more neutral take, just take a look at the HN comments.

HN submissions are usually primary sources, and the HN comments are where you have the discussion. Sometimes even the top voted comment is just a summary of the actual submission, but rephrased to be less biased or more clear. If HN can’t point out the buried lede or explanation and get it upvoted then there’s a larger problem, but in practice I don’t find this to be the case (though maybe I’m wrong).

Does the article provide anything which the HN comment section wouldn’t?

This is my feeling. The article is the reference material for what we discuss in the comments; the comments provide interpretation.

For sure HN articles don't need to be unbiased, but the way press releases are written is particularly soggy and misleading. I'm sure there are exceptions but boy are they rare, especially as company size grows.
