But HN simply ranks posts by upvotes. I know you don't intend it this way, but you're effectively suggesting that HN should not pay attention to what its userbase are upvoting, but instead curate posts by your personal opinion instead. That's ... probably not going to be a workable solution for anyone other than you, I'm sorry.

There are always a lot of HN top stories that I'm not interested in, but I just scroll past them. If I really cared, I'd use a community site that provides a filter, an app that provides a filter, or just vibecode one for myself.

Or the main topics just changed to something you are not that interested in, there was always a temporary bias to some bigger topics.

If I would not like to hear about funding rounds when money was cheap, being here 5 years ago wouldn't have been fun.

If I don't like to hear about Go being here 10 years ago would not be fun.

My timelines may be off, but the general industry trends showing up on HN were always there (and it would be weird if they wouldn't).

No? It's still about tech, same as always
