Agree. Shouldn't a "minimal" website have everything it needs on one page? Huge images you have to scroll past to read anything useful isn't being minimal, it's just cruft. Surely it's possible to build a website that doesn't take up a lot of screen real-estate, has everything necessary to function, and still looks professional and aesthetically pleasing?

Given that we're on HackerNews, I think we can answer that with certainty.

Well, I suppose looks professional and aesthetically pleasing are subjective, but I wouldn't change HackerNews's look.

You might have more engagement from more people with larger, more prominent images.
