Ugh what why??? What a terrible way to conduct things. This was the top voted post on HN today, and there was great discussion happening. In the future, please consider letting good discussions about HN continue, instead of immediately censoring criticisms of the site. |

The discussion is continuing. You just posted to it.
The HN front page has never consisted of just the most upvoted posts. If it did, HN would be unrecognizable. Whatever you call this policy—people say 'moderation', 'curation', 'censorship', and other things, depending on how they feel about the most recent thing we did—it isn't secret and it isn't new.
I'm happy to debate this with you till the cows come home, but my first duty is to see that the stories on the front page are the most intellectually substantive of the ones currently in play. I'm not seeing that here.
