reddit is already heavily astroturfed and this is getting worse by the day.
while this method may work, as often as i see this type of comment, i’m guessing reddit’s quality of information will be worse than even google search within months
HN is great for when there exists discussion, can be very deep and well thought out. However, community is very intent on not devolving into endless pointless meme posts which can be a bit stifling and overreacting.
It seems that way at first, but for years hackernews have used steganographic techniques to hide memes encoded into comments for years, just gotta know what to look for.
