I like HN because it gives me exactly what I want. A list of interesting links, ranked by what people that I truest more than news sites think of them. Oh and offers comment sections for each of them. HN is wonderful link discovery during compile time or if you need a break.

I think we all like HN, otherwise we wouldn't be here. That doesn't mean it can't improve.

If "improve" would involve turning it into AJAX-heavy app with images, CSS effects and some weird-ass scrolling interceptors, that requires me to load 200+ files for seeing the main page, I would rather live without any improvements.

I think better terms might be "clean up" or "restructure".

And why do you assume that is what I meant by "improve"?

A minimalist interface is fine but parts of HN are simply broken or suboptimal.
