Yeah it is great, isn’t it? Someone told me there was an announcement from Meta how they’re deranking all political posts (maybe only on Threads?) and there was a lot of curfuffle that said stuff like “censorship”, but I genuinely believe it’s a very good idea. It sucks for big name political commentators, I guess, but I really don’t want to see anything election related when I’m trying to find the opening hours for my farmer’s market.
This is one of the reasons politics is (loosely) a banned topic on HN: right or wrong, it has a tendency to just suck all the air out of the room if it's allowed to run rampant in every forum.
