Ask HN: Are there sites that are like HN, but for science, music, history etc?
I get what the OP is getting at here. Reddit&#x27;s system is a little different than HN&#x27;s. I honestly think the limiting in the ability to downvote helps this space. And I do find that the community is better here than Reddit. The main subreddits of those topics tend to have a lot more armchair types. One of the reasons I love HN is that the majority of users are more informed about the topics than the average person. There are a lot more thoughtful discussions, and more advanced topics being discussed.<p>I mean ask yourself, why are you here in the first place? If you&#x27;re claiming is that this is just Reddit, why are you here?
