Ask HN: Has the Mood Changed?

I have been reading this page for some time now- comments more than anything. Do you think the „mood“ or „vibe“ has changed?

I sense a strong shift over the last 5 years towards more critical thinking and sceptisim which i think is an improvement. Downsides are growing bitterness, conspiracy theories and doomerism.

Startups seem to have lost appeal, everybody wants to work in big tech but no one loves it. YC is hardly a thing now. Gladly, nobody pretends to like VCs anymore. Self-improvement blog posts are decreasing (good bye spead reading). Do you agree? What else have you noted- good or bad?
