Nobody, absolutely nobody of any relevancy to tech gives a shit about HN. This place could be gone tomorrow and good riddance, we wouldn’t lose anything of substance. Dang and now tomhow have driven this place into mediocrity and irrelevance.

But Reddit? So many contributors and so many good communities that losing it would leave a massive void on the internet.

All this to say, I’m amused sama would rather do an AMA on Reddit than on HN. Speaks volumes.

Oh, and in case I wasn’t clear: fuck dang for butchering this site.

You’re going to get downvoted obviously but this appeared on Embedded (or electronics?) and then made its way here. It’s a bit telling the actual hacking communities are on “that awful site” that’s so beneath us, meanwhile our pristine HN is full of gushing AI ads as front page hacker material.
