Yeah this is pretty much my sentiment. I want to discover I teresting stuff, main reason I'm on HN. But big S social media is a cancer on attention as far as I'm concerned, it serve no benefit to society.
The only times on the internet I've felt part of a community was on old web forums.
I used some of those similar web type services for discovery in the past but they became shit fast or shut down. HN is the nearest I can find that surfaces stuff I'm interested in. Social media might have stuff on it but I'm unwilling to waste my time trying to find it
