This website is obviously AI generated down to the "Number Noun, Number Noun" section headers, "authored" by someone with a questionable background. I don't know why HN keeps upvoting articles from it.

Don't worry. A flood of half-assed excuses for genuinely bad, annoying prose is being dispatched to your comment now.

The internet is becoming a joke.

it gives HN users a chance to share their anecdotes about cookware
I would prefer us to do it in a way that does not benefit zero effort marketing rags like this.

I'm glad to have found this site. Though it's obviously AI-generated, the research itself is solid (I've checked).

I'm using it to avoid enshittified brands in the future.

For real, not sure why HN does not take seriously the fact the reporting farming accounts should be nowadays a baked in feature.

I appreciate that it’s minimal in functionality, but times changes and slop infiltrates every single platform, HN no exception

Do we know how many HN accounts are automated bots? Probably over half at least. And moderation doesn’t do anything about it (for example, there’s an account called cindyllm that posts random comments and gets downvoted and flagged but the account lives on). Upvotes are probably nearly automated.
