Come on, you know what is meant by "social media" in this context. An algorithmic feed with tuning to be as addictive as possible. No one outside of someone trying to be obtuse would put HN and Tiktok in the same category. | ||

HN literally has an algorithmic feed and the karma system is the most addictive system used on forums. It's why Reddit is so addictive. Either HN is part of the evil social media club or the rule for what separates the good ones from the bad ones needs updated. HN and TikTok are different and I think being able to articulate what actually makes them meaningfully different is the first step toward useful legislation. | ||
