Also, I "assume" their voting system is still employing the old method of showing the highest-voted across anything on HN.
Should probably put in a filter to let all the "Show HNs" live in their own section, otherwise a lot of users will simply enjoy the novelty of "new" things and Show HNs will dominate the homepage (although to me, it is a lot more fun than seeing the 800th boring link of how some mainstream company is doing something "amazing").
Thanks, appreciate the reassurance. I think my previous comment could safely be construed as a gripe...
Lo, I remember the days of Apple releases, the top 10 ways articles, ... oops. I can no longer remember, and we had some good ones, even plethoras of front page links posted in jest and in retribution... sigh. Getting old.
