Following the reddit fiasco, I’ve been looking for other communities to get tech news from. I was active on HN a long time ago but it’s been a hot minute, and I left because the politics were pretty bad; lots of free speech maximalists who loved to just ask questions, especially about queer people.
Is it better now? Worse? Just different?
I check at least once a day. HN is great for tech news. In fact, it might not be a bad idea to stream HN topics into posts in a Lemmy community to discuss here.
The comments at HN are generally high quality but seem heavily moderated.
