Pretty much Twitter at this point for me. There's too much pessimism on HN when it comes to crypto. I appreciate criticism but Twitter has all the deep thinkers

[bidirectional]

Yes. Twitter is honestly much better for most topics, as long as you do a good job of curating who you follow.

Practially any deep topic on HN is 90% just people with no expertise making pronouncements or asking for it to be explained to them. It's still worth reading for the occasional insight from the minority, though.

As someone whose asked for some technical papers to be explained a little, I find the expert digests on papers to be one of my favorite things on HN as well as experts who help put things in context

Ah yes those 280 character tweets lend themselves extremely well to deep thought.

[mhluongo]

Quite a condemnation that HN can't beat 280 character tweets on this topic, eh?

[oauea]

The topic of cryptocurrency scams? Don't need to a waste a lot of words on that thankfully :-)

This is what OP means.

You know people link to their blog posts and stuff right?

Yes, I could've tweeted that. What's your point? Are you convinced my comment was an attempt at deep thought? I guess on twitter it might've been considered as such?

I'm new to Twitter, always have been a Luddite when it comes to it but I'm curious to try, any advice on how to find quality accounts to follow?
