I discovered HN around 2012, been visiting this site the first thing every morning for a decade now.
Happy birthday HN :)

#54It's remarkable how unchanged the community feel has been on HN -- those headlines would not be out of place on today's front page if you change the company names and tech stacks a bit :) Doesn't seem like there's been an eternal September moment in the past decade and a half (like Reddit's push for mobile adoption, for example). Really a testament to the mods' consistency, thanks @dang!

#55I really enjoy HN and slashdot.org type of community. Makers talking about making things.
The longevity and quality of HN discussion is much appreciated.

#60We must acknowledge that it went from the free speech place for nerds and autists with zero censure to a safe space for mediocre imposters where everything slightly unconventional is being flagged.
Congratulations.
