Recent times have made me ashamed of what this site has become. I'm with jaquesm- this is ridiculous.
Tons of new accounts <1mo throwing the discourse out with the bath water and no one stopping them.
HN has become the LA of websites. Y'all think everyone thinks like you and anyone who doesn't is just wrong. But when it all burns down and people are cheering you will be left wondering why.
It has devolved and only gotten worse. I feel those of us who are more center have slowly but surely gone AFK and now all thats left are the two extremes.
Comments flagged for absolutely no reason, the attacks- it even feels like dang has gone hands-off lately.
Since Trump's election I've seen nothing but rule-breaking everywhere, and it has become absolutely rampant.
I dont even come here for the comments anymore. yall can have the burning garbage heap this has become- it was a good run while it lasted.
