Increasingly over the last week or so I forget that I’m scrolling HackerNews and not Reddit when I read comments like OPs. I mean this literally and not in jest. Is anybody else noticing more low effort / group-think / karma-farming comments lately?
Yes. Particularly in any topic that has been politicized. Covid related posts are filled with Reddit-tier comments. It might be interesting to have something like RES for HN.
