As much as I love HN, it is an echo chamber on some topics. Also sometimes people are too afraid to post a contrary opinion for fear of getting voted down to oblivion, as such some threads just become full of 'me-too' type comments.

My wish is for more text centric HN-alike forums, which cover the topics that HN doesn't, but is populated by the same type of people that HN has - i.e. mostly polite and knowledgeable, with a desire to contribute to the discussion.

Reddit is not it, nor are any of the other forums I've found so far.
