I get it and thank you, and maybe it's just me since my time investment in HN was mostly during the period of it's founding until 2015 or so at the latest (this account obviously not withstanding). And perhaps I'm an old fart now an "things have changed, old man" and all that stuff. But honestly the reason I came here in the first place is that during that period, this place would be the LAST place on the internet to expect to encounter such childish behavior and in the past such replies would have been downvoted into oblivion. I guess I made the mistake in assuming that "2025 HN" is the same as it was back then; clearly I was wrong as I'm looking at the feed and seeing tons of quality posts with zero-to-miniscule interactions, which would have been unheard of "back in the day". It would seem this place has fallen off from how I remembered it.
