No, no, I like HN, and have derived a great deal of value from it over the past 15 years or so (even made meatspace friends from it; the HN Tokyo meetup basically became my entire social life after I had kids).
That comment is one of my favorites because it was funny... it was "soooooo Hacker News". It might only have been so funny because I've spent so much time on HN over the years.
I don't really use any other websites like this (reddit or whatever). HN is a kind of unique thing for me.
Do you have other places that you prefer?
What would you say HN should change to become a better place?
