Negative reactions are quicker to arise and quicker to write out, which is a double whammy that causes them to appear more quickly and dominate the thread early. Slower, positive reactions eventually show up (usually!) and in the meantime we get the odd "contrarian dynamic" phenom where "I can't believe how negative these comments are!" objections start popping up and get upvoted to the top. Internet is weird. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor... |

negative comments -> some presumably "funny" witty joke -> positive/meaningful insight -> peopel complain about comment quality
