Re:Is Show HN Dead? No, but It's Drowning by kshri24 on Tuesday February 17, 2026 @07:45PM (#47055570)
You can cut 90-95% of the slop posts by checking the project's GitHub repository. If it has .cursor / .claude folders it should be automatically pushed into a slow queue with the queue shifting every X hours. For example, this really popular post from 27 days ago was just pure AI slop. It got on to front page of HN and stayed there for days. Should have been nuked the very first hour:
