In the last 2-3 years, mostly because of AI, keeping up with interesting articles on HN has become harder and harder.
How do you deal with it? Besides the simple solution of simply ignoring interesting stuff more and more.
RSS
Anecdotally it feels like comment threads are a lot like "megathreads" on forums now, where there might be hundreds of replies. Wonder if there's been a surge of users over the last three or four years.
We are strongly in the AI acceleration phase, so it'll keep getting harder. I use an RSS reader for the top posts only. In the RSS reader, I "star" what I want to read, and read what I can from among what I have starred. Of course I miss a lot, but I get the broad picture of where things are going.
What?! Your RSS/Atom reader does not support filtering?
Im not sure i understand your question. If you cant find it, how are you ignoring it?
At any rate, I find AI interesting, but have a similar opinion that most of the HN discourse has become low quality. My solution is to follow individual users I know are high quality with similar interests.

I'm curious to hear why AI made it harder to read HN. Is it because there's lots of it and you don't like it?
