Ask HN: Similar communities to HN that are less cynical? This post was on the front page a few days and really resonated with me [1]. I love HN, because there is nowhere else on the internet with the same concentration of intelligence, deep knowledge and mature perspective on things. However like the author I’ve noticed myself becoming increasingly cynical about tech, and the world. This is a very bad attitude to have for any startup ambitions, where optimism (bordering on irrationality) is necessary to succeed. So I want to start reading other things more often. What other communities are there that are more optimistic, but still have a similar level of intelligence, experience etc? 1. https://kg.dev/thoughts/i-love-you-hn-but-youre-toxic |
