Ask HN: Alternatives to HN for tech news and discussion?

2 pointsdantillberg4 comments

I've been finding myself getting more frustrated over time with silent flagging of articles where they suddenly drop from the HN front page without any indication as to why.

What are some good alternative tech news & discussion sources?

View on HN

https://lobste.rs is similar, but has far fewer posts/comments.

Slashdot still exists, believe it or not.

It does, but the signal-to-noise ratio is considerably higher on HN.

If there's a replacement with a higher S/N ratio than HN, I'd like to know what it is...

The irony of course being that Slashdot has "editors" to supposedly get a stronger S/N ratio than a editor-free flood site like HN...
