Every social place has its own "traditions" if I dare use this term.

Twitter is not really a place for debate (more for rants IMHO), but HN is. And not every one wants to debate and that's cool.

What I enjoy the most on HN is the often insightful content (based on years of experience), but many threads bring "hype wars" or some kind of tech-related drama, what I remember the most is:

  - C/C++ is evil, every one should do Rust
  - Kubernetes is evil because it's complex
  - Your business is failing if it's not generating 100k MRR

I do not even bother anymore to argue against that.

NB: I exaggerated intentionally to make my point, I know there is more nuanced opinions, and some real/justified concerns about those topics.

IMHO, While HN is a "social place" (there are people who can talk), this is not a "social network" (I will probably never remember your nickname even if we talk again together in another thread).
