I find the political discussions on here interesting and generally of decent+ caliber. Plus so much of what’s happening is tech related / enabled.

There’s 30 posts on the front page. If someone doesn’t care about politics why can’t they just ignore that 1 post instead of flagging it into oblivion?

View on HN

I agree that it is slightly better than Reddit but often it just turns into a mess that doesn't touch on tech.

They are plenty of places for political discussions. HN is a rare great place for tech so personally I'd rather keep it that way.

I agree that HN tends to have better discussion, but I'd argue it tends to have better discussion precisely because it's not the norm, so there's input from the type of people that loathe the current state of Reddit on the matter, and also the type of people that do like yapping about it 24/7 are absent from it.
