Ask HN: Is it time to fork HN into AI/LLM and "Everything else/other?"

I would very much like to enjoy HN the way I did years ago, as a place where I'd discover things that I never otherwise would have come across.

The increasing AI/LLM domination of the site has made it much less appealing to me.

Containerization (either the docker stuff or the literal 40 foot steel boxes) was a huge revolution in their respective industries.

There was a ton of work and howling and news about them for years, decades.

Now they’re so boring and standard that they’re just table stakes. Nobody cares about them enough to get into long discussions about them.

The same in a best case will happen with LLMs - the things they can do will become boring and assumed, and people will eventually stop trying to make them do things they can’t.
