This is fricking awesome. It's the coolest thing I've seen on HN for a while. Love it!

N.B. I visit HN multiple times per day. I've been a member of HN since 2010. My last comment was made in 2018. I logged in for the first time in years just to make this comment :-)

I don't get it. Good visualization takes complexity and brings clarity and focus to it. There's seemingly nothing connecting where things are placed or how moving in any direction will lead you somewhere that develops understanding of what's going on. It's just a massive grid with magnification and a pseudo voronoi effect.

It really feels like something out of "Web 4.0", like some random next-generation UX pattern (for better or for worse)

I agree, but then I spend a lot of time talking about and developing software for Apple Vision Pro so perhaps I see this in a different light to most. Feels like a great interface for random discovery and/or semi-random discovery within more tightly connected bubbles of taxonomy.
