@dang, the linked article appears to be close to a clickbait blogspam post trying to capitalize on Cybertruck/Tesla hate. From the title to the opening meme/image (which is all most will see) to the selective editing of the source material, it seems to have a strong negative bias. The Electrek article simply copy/pastes a far more nuanced review which can be found here: https://www.cybertruckownersclub.com/forum/threads/basecamp-... Based on the general low quality discussion in this comment section (clearly many didn't read the article and even fewer read the original post), Electrek did a good job of riling people up. Doesn't seem like a great Hacker News thread though. The original post has a nicely balanced conclusion that is overall missed by 98% of the commenters: > my overall take on the Basecamp is similar to my take on the CT in general: it’s awesome and brilliant in many ways but flawed in a few areas... the jury is still out on the Basecamp because I’m not yet convinced that the brilliant elements outweigh the areas that need improvement. |

I take your point about the OP drawing from another source, but it's too late to switch the link on this thread now as the discussion has already been filled up with reactions to the provocations of the current article. It's a classic flamewar topic, of course, and those tend to produce poor comments no matter which side of the flamewar people are on.
