This site is good, bad, and ugly. Wish I could leave a 2.5 rating.
The good: literal geniuses post here about technology, science, society and culture, design, and more. You can learn amazing stuff. Also, relatively spam free.
The Bad: because so many Silicon Valley firms have criminally bad customer support despite claiming to be enlightened beings, you hear frequent sob stories here from desperate people trying to save their business from Google or Facebook or other uncaring corporations blocking them or stealing their money. This has become the unofficial tech support channel for these companies.
The ugly: the moderation is fierce and politically biased. Good luck if you have a political opinion not inside the narrow 3x5 index card of approved public opinions about not getting downvoted and banned. The freedom loving streak that Silicon Valley used to enjoy is now close to dead.
It's still a site worth reading, but know what you're seeing is a bit ugly.

This was great when the community was more focused towards news related to software development. Nowadays, it seems that anything strange makes it to the top page, like new species of dinosaurs discovered and whatnot.

The moderation is of this site is very heavy handed and ready to take sides in any debate by removing or shadow banning accounts they disagree with. Do not engage anyone defending corporate censorship, racist or sexist ideas especially if it has to do with labor law or corporate malfeasance. They're trying to walk a line between inviting expert opinion and perspectives, but only so long as those opinions and perspectives do not clash with corporate sponsorship.

Hacker News is a news aggregator for intellectuals. It very frequently has some incredibly cool stuff on it, but occasionally links to topics that can be very child-inappropriate. Additionally, the profanity level among commenters is high. I recommend a good profanity filter when using this site.
