I no longer say things online except some rare occasions. Mass social media online discourse will slowly vanish in the next 15 yrs

Is this one of those rare occasions? :)

I don't think HN is immune from the "redditization" of the internet, though it's certainly a better community than most.

> "redditization" of the internet

'Redditation' of the world. If it were only taking place on the internet it wouldn't be all that concerning.

I always feel kinda bad about starting/continuing a 1 on 1 conversation on here because of the "don't cross-examine" thing in the guidelines.

Hard agree with this - sometimes find myself typing out a well-intentioned response, but then cancelling because of the potential downside years in the future for some anodyne opinion held today. Not to mention Roko's Basilisk (all hail the benevolent AI! :)

[Teever]

That's an interesting thought. What do you think will replace it?

[Lacerda69]

Not sure but I think it will be more focused on offline life instead. AI and enshittification will make the internet and the core error in its monetization based on ads so bad that it will be replaced by a much smaller and more private version.

Idk seems like you post comments on HN almost daily.

But do they say anything?
