Sadly it seems like the comments are becoming more like reddit comments. I think more and more people are coming from there which isn’t a bad thing but they are bringing that style of comments.

Niche topics will have deeper comments because the people interested typically have a deeper understanding. Then you have Facebook and Snap which everyone has an opinion on even without understanding the situation.

Very good postulation I had not thought of that. I think it will be important for HN to retain that level of quality as I think we have all benefitted from the higher-than-average level of thought that goes into an HN comment relative to other internet communities.
