I agree with this. I wish there was more of it. However it seems to me like this is becoming more and more rare on HN or harder to find by being drowned out.
The number of times I’ve heard someone say “_____ is not like it used to be”, or “it’s harder to find ____ in (name community/event/location/etc)” is significant, and even when it’s true short-term, it rarely pans out long-term unless that very thought spreads to enough people that it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Like do what you want it’s your life. I’m just saying what I’ve seen.
