I refuse to even add comments to my new projects.

I can't imagine running HN. If I had to run HN and also had to deal with 1-n week long flame wars I would delete the database, backups, and repo.

The worst part of the modern internet is how often we have to come into contact with commenters and moderators. No, I don't want to click on a monkey emoji to declare your Discord's constitution legally binding.

Your point? My point is that HN is fine the way it is.

Plus, it has far fewer people posting one line non-comments than other places...
