I will probably try this, out since Reddit seems unwilling to address corruption in its management. Wondering how free speech issues will play out here.

#14'Imzy', the name is a bit hard to pronounce.
the name means nothing; it was an available URL without copyright issues

#15> It's like Reddit, without the trolls That's HN.
Reddit definitely does not have the tech focus hn does. Maybe it did in the long past, but not anymore. Definitely not a substitute for Reddit content without the trolls.

#18But for the creators and doers it's horrific.
We move forward by being challenged. That includes everything.
(until AI has the ability to filter out things that challenge but don't move us forward)

#19Why can't a forum cater to everybody? E.g., you could hide troll comments using a filter.
I fear we won't make any major advancements until AI can accurately measure our intent, snark, etc. Because we need to not be echo chambers, imo. Unpopular opinions are amazing and needed. But the assholes, for any cause, only serve to detract from the discussion.
I really dislike echo chambers.. and it's all i see these days.

Did you even read the article? They are explicitly saying that they will (and do) ban bullying and hateful communities. They are not free speech absolutists.
Still wondering how free speech will play out here, because I wonder if they will stick to eliminating trolls or if their moderation will be subjective and "politicized".
