Thank you. I hope HN starts autodeading posts from Mastodon and other social media as most of the time it is just random people giving short, unhumorous commentary on a screenshot; they're the YouTube reaction videos of Hacker News.
jay_kyburz•2mo ago
I just shared what I found. I don't know why Mastodon comments would be less interesting that reddit comments.

Thanks! We don't want a post about a post. We want the fully-resolved canonical post.
GaryBluto•2mo ago
It's not just that it's Mastodon comments, it's that it's Mastodon thread discussing a Reddit thread.
fulafel•2mo ago
I suggest you try this: click on the gamedev.place link and see the past posts from there. They're good.
ares623•2mo ago
Is it just me or is the OP in that Reddit thread just more AI slop?

There’s a pandemic of engagement bait posts on Reddit now where posts make up situations that are guaranteed to evoke ridicule or anger since those often get the most engagement. OP often replies in affirmative replies, mirroring the comments. Every once in a while a subtle reference to a product is conveniently mentioned.

The redditor enabled "Turbo" mode which executes every command without asking and didn't even bother to deny the "rm" and "rmdir" commands (the setting is right underneath it).

tomhow•2mo ago
Comments moved thither. Thanks!
