Lobste.rs is quite different from HN, though, so I think it's fair to warn people in advance:

HN allows anything that "hackers" might find interesting. On lobste.rs, anything that's not directly programming-related is generally off-topic.

HN encourages self-promotion, lobste.rs discourages it.

Until recently lobste.rs was very actively anti-AI. Newer rules have rolled that back somewhat, but there is still a rather vocal anti-AI contingent that is not afraid to pick fights with people who openly admit to being interested in machine learning as a technology.
