HN without people contributing relevant things would suck. I get it, they have some idealized idea of what they want the internet to be and how people should interact, how information should be shared, blah blah. But the places and culture that end up encouraging people to contribute can be quite different from this "ideal", and sure it has flaws, and sure we can try and do things to improve things, but I kind of don't care, I like finding places on the internet that have people who love contributing, that something about that wee corner of the internet does a better job of creating that kind of culture than other corners.
