Well, the space on the front page is limited. And there are lots of other controversial topics - potentially taking all the space.

And some want only technical topics or mainly technical. So "curating" is more appropriate I think.

(But personally I did participate ... so much that I am rate limited again)



the front page isn't limited. Hit "next" and you see as many more posts as you like. Most front-page posts are tech related, we are far from being overrun with controversial posts.


It is not the frontpage by definition anymore, if one has to click "next" ..


No, but what does that matter?
