I like how little patience HN has for off-topic, non-constructive or unfounded comments.
Sometimes I have the feeling that even HN is bit too redditish for me. Is there something that is to HN what HN is to reddit?

An online community focused on quality, thought-provoking conversations about a broad range of interests. It's a significantly different experience from other online communities:
-Most members choose to use their real identities on the site, and this information is only available to other members.
-Each member pays a small subscription fee, which helps keep out trolls and spammers. The fee also pays for moderators and serves as our members' commitment to quality and respect.
-Discoverboard doesn't display ads to subscribers or sell their data.
Full disclosure: I work for discoverboard. We would be very interested in hearing your thoughts about it. I've also created an invite code for free trials for people on this thread: https://discoverboard.com/code/HN
Treating reddit as a singular 'thing' like HN doesn't really work, reddit is a platform for thousands of communities each of which has different standards and expectations.
Mailing lists for the other stuff.
email me at mtelesha at not yahoo but the google email account with a title lobste.rs invite. I think I have 3 - 5 invites. Also include your HN user name. I have to verify your not a troll :)
UPDATE: I still have more invites 12:31 Eastern time
