I browsed a lot prior to 2019 and recently again. I used to work in software development but have moved out of the field recently.

I love HN and derive a lot of benefit from it, unfortunately during the Great Scare I found it impossible to stay away from the associated threads.

That sort of stuff seems to have died down now though, so we're good.

If I could just censor any mention of it I'd be much happier, I'd add it to uBlock if I could, heh.
