> Best you can do is to ignore content and comments which are irrelevant to you, that way quality always meet your standards

The community of actively participating submitters and commentators is surprisingly small. This is true for nearly all communities.

If HN had a really rich ignore feature, it would take a very short time to create a personal ignore list that pruned the glib or polarising political commentators.

I would say though, that whilst this has proven to be a good thing on the communities I run, I personally prefer not to use ignore features.

I meant a 'client side' ignore feature. :)

Service side content filtering only creates bubbles.
