Hacker News evading criticism by selectively adding noreferrer to certain links
We got complaints from users about sites punishing HN referrers so I tried to oblige them, the same way we do other user requests.<p>At the moment I feel caught in a double bind because there are complaints no matter what we do.<p>I'm in a workshop today and can only check HN on breaks, so I can't properly read this thread yet. I'll return to it later, probably this evening.<p>Edit: I think I agree with the users arguing that a fairer and simpler solution is to just put noreferrer on all links. It's late enough that I don't trust myself to deploy even a trivial code change, so I'll do that tomorrow.
