There is a downvote button, so presumably once more people start using the site those posts wont make it to the top so easily.
Right now it's just me myself and I researching the most popular stuff being talked about that's somewhat related to "cryptucurrencies, cryptography, and privacy" which those two titles fall under.
It doesn't interest me. For various reasons which mainly includes political ones.
> maybe you just have to accept that a lot of the HN and crypto audience is interested in bitcoin.
I entirely accept that (however I'd remove "and crypto" from your sentence to make it closer to the truth). I'm not complaining that people on HN post a lot of Bitcoin related content. It's a community website, not my own. If Bitcoin interest people in the community then it should be there. There is too much Bitcoin for my taste, but I just don't click on it and look for the other stuff that actually are of interest to me. And there are still a lot of interesting discussions on HN that are not about Bitcoin.
And requiring JS? On a security site? Fail.
You raise a good point.
Perhaps I will make an all-text version of the frontpage for the ultra-security-minded user? Similar to the RSS feed: https://cryptanalys.is/rss.php (which isn't viewable at the moment due to an encoding error according to http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcry... )
Maybe a "retro" version of the homepage would be to your liking? Like this: http://retro.hackaday.com/
The site launched just a few days ago. I've been splitting my time the last few days between buying up marketing spaces and quickly skimming the crpyto/security world so the quality and depth of the articles certainly need some work, I agree.
