I don't think HN is negative at all. If it were, I wouldn't be here. I do think that there are too many people here who think too highly of themselves. This leads to insecurity and bashing others. I don't pay attention to it, though. Too many great things here to even waste a second on that. Sometimes, when the thread does turn into a negative train, I try and break it off.
I too think people here are friendly and helpful, if you really ask for solutions politely. But, sometimes, I see people criticizing the HN community and that's why I shared this link which shows the good-natured side of HN.
