Moderation is quality on HN too.

The tech+(with some business) focused nature of the feed keeps folks off too.

No memes here.

HN will always retain some of the new comers. I was first reddit user then HN.

HN instantly brought me "old" internet nostalgia. Geeks just talking about things in a mostly open minded way. Lack of memes, politics and "boring" design will be all positives for some.

Politics is very much on HN. It's a part of the same filter bubble as the rest of big tech: https://i.imgur.com/taGzsZP.jpg

It's thinly veiled behind more passive aggressively written prose than reddit, but it's here. No images, I'll grant, but as someone mistaken for conservative by liberals and liberal by conservatives I can assure you it's very much political.
