This is such a massive story now there will be damage control.

Utter nonsense

This was my thought. Extremely unlikely a regular internet troll has that kind of money.

> I’m going to check your profile — 90% chance you spread antivax propaganda.

You’re not on Reddit anymore friend

> If you're a software engineer working on a project with ethical implications, please consider the kind of world you're building.

You'll find them on Twitter falling over themselves to tell everyone how morally upstanding they are

After Windows 10 I’m honestly expecting the worst

This is exactly what it feels like. Worship at the altar of Science™ or else, anything else is blasphemy.

You couldn’t pay me to use Twitter, the idea of paying them is absolutely hilarious

Thanks for joining HN just to tell us this.

My god what awful clickbait

> Any other browser you may choose might not collect that data, but don't be surprised if it halves your battery life

This is literally what Chrome does on a MacBook, the battery drain is insane

Only they never posted anything during the outage there

> Google has launched a scathing attack on Microsoft today, accusing it of trying “to break the way the open web works in an effort to undercut a rival.”

That is some pathological levels of projection.

Agree, PHPStorm for me is a productivity monster

Of course they won't mention how it's the most astroturfed platform on the internet with some of the worst communities.

Find it difficult to believe anything they say.

Twitter was useful for following people in the tech field but otherwise I do not miss it. The constant 'gotcha' tweets and blue-checkmark posturing... ughhh, so awful.

Are you intentionally trying to gaslight people? This is just straight up false. See Kathy Griffin holding a bloody Trump - a tweet which she’s retweeted multiple times.

IE 11 is no longer supported :(

“We think you’re gonna love it”

I agree and it’s starting to feel like there’s an agenda behind it

Why are treatments that are effective in some way never discussed?

Single-core performance always held me back from AMD. Will wait to see more benchmarks but this looks extremely promising.

Don’t forget things like this being promoted on the “Popular” section:

There are many in the thread of Jewish faith asking it to be taken down, feeling that it promotes Holocaust denial /minimisation. If you read the horrendously uncaring Moderator sticky post dripping with sarcasm you get a good feel for the state of Reddit in 2020.

Have never come across the word before either. Makes you think - did the person say the word to convey some kind of meaning? Or to sound super-smart to their peers?

I’ve seen impending economic doom being pushed on HN since 2016

This is happening increasingly on HN as election nears.

> Maybe I’m missing out on some gems

Trust me, you're not

It's been like that since 2016. People are thoroughly sick of it but those people are downvoted into the hundreds and don't get a voice.

By whom?
