    Besides Lemmy, HackerNews is decent altho way less subject/community driven

      Hackernews is just chock full of techbros who think that since they know how to code, that automatically makes them rational and more authoritative on a subject than most people. Every time I go there I’m surprised by how crappy it is lol

      Edit: somehow misspelled “techbros” lol

        Hacker News might be the most insufferable and childishly naive place on the internet.

      Love hackernews but if it gained huge traction outside of the programmer community, it’d be corpinated and enshittified in the blink of an eye by a team of MBAs.

        But getting membership is next to impossible. I tried maling them and contacting them on their IRC channel, but to no avail.
