I originally went to lobste.rs because I wanted to avoid repetitive discussion and get more technical stuff. In time, though, lobste.rs got fairly boring since it's always the same stuff over and over again. I found an alternative means[0] of filtering out boring things here on HN and it's enjoyable to use again. 0: deleting comments of people who aren't interesting from my view and highlighting ones who often say things that are interesting, the user I'm replying to is one of the latter |

There are some interesting comments there from some people who don’t spend time on other sites, but your assessment is similar to mine
My comment about being anti-AI above may not have been clear. They actually talk about AI a lot and AI threads attract a high amount of activity. The difference is that insightful or honest comments don’t have much of a chance because there’s a clear popular opinion on the site and any information that doesn’t fit isn’t welcome.
The giant soupy mess of opinions on HN can be tiresome, but it’s nice to get a wider range. HN is its own little bubble but at least there’s some diversity of experiences to be found.
