agreed, but looking at the article it looks like you can turn this personalization bit up or down though to find the mama bear/just right level?

Yeah exactly. I was really worried about reducing the serendipity that HN provides (as it's arguably why I've used it for so long as well) but the configurability allows it so that everyone can tweak their level of personalization to get their perfect goldilocks level.

What is the just right level when tuning in one's echo chamber?

[semi_sentient]

shrug maybe the solution on something like this is where every nth post is a personalized one.

sneeze I do that by skimming things and clicking on every nth post that interests me

I have a sinking sensation this phrase will pop up in a meeting now.
