Not sure what it "used" to be like, but I just had a gander and it seems to be filled with the same type of low-quality startup/founder content you'll find on LinkedIn

It used to be like "Ask HN" threads on HN - random experts would chime in, obvious self-promo would get nuked, and you'd actually learn something at the end of the day.
It used to be a lot better and less spammy a few years ago. It reminds me of Product Hunt now, pure self-promotion.
