Honestly, same. I spend most of my time on Lobste.rs, private blogs, and chat communities rather than HN for this reason. I check in every so often out of habit and can catch some business news here or there...but the joy, growth, and curiosity have moved to smaller bastions specifically to avoid the slop and its glorification.

HN is mostly dead to me. The site was billed as a place for curious minds, but there is little curiosity in letting a machine do your thinking.
