Hacker News Reader

That's what it was like with Reddit. Their new subreddits saved themselves from that: AskReddit is an excellent part of the site, now.

Metafiler has AskMeFi. Maybe Hacker News could get something like that? Or perhaps we could choose to filter out self-referential posts?

View on HN

I think an option to filter out (or just see) self-referential posts would be great. I actually like AskHN posts a lot, and an option to just see those posts would probably encourage people to post more.
