I think that wasn't the real cause.
What do you think it was?

SÑ hasn't grown rapidly in this time period but it hasn't either gone downhill. It's been stable.
Why SN hasn't grown rapidly?
Some old man yelling at fresh blood us the real cause.

- That is downhill.
- The previous trend was uphill.
- That guy was also here during the uptrend.

- Agree

- That guy wasn't as toxic as he's grown now. Also, he couldn't digest the challenge to his supremacy. Stacker News can't be just about his ideology alone. TBH, he isn't the only cause but he's been one of the biggest to draw away new and often astray people. Even though he calls me a lot of things, and went beyond SN to harm me, I still don't hat him but I can't stand his ways of dealing with newbies on SN.

He was in some sense equally toxic, but it hadn't manifested as severely against anyone before you.
Although, if you listen to @realBitcoinDog's podcast (or his appearance on the Stacker Sports Pod), he's met bitcoiners in real life who were previously turned away from Stacker News by Darth. You might be unique for sticking through it, more so than being a target.

I'm not getting alerts when you or @denlillaapan respond now, and all previous alerts i got from you guys disappeared. I wonder if SN thinks I'm a bot now...
Trye
hadn't manifested as severely against anyone before you.
Because I stood against his ways of dealing with newcomers. For him, anyone who challenges his ways is his enemy.
I'll be here forever and I'll prove him wrong.

Hypothetically, but part of being a free society and open community is putting up with weirdos.
I don't mind filtering out those who can't.
