It's true. But it's not what contributes to the quality of the conversation. Find a niche (non-meme) subreddit that has at best 10 posts a day and check the conversations on there. They all have flashy avatars, a modern design for their posts, etc. But the conversation is high quality at the end of the day.

I would say this site user design wise is about the same as reddit, so I don't agree with any of your points. What makes it higher quality is that it has a niche theme (hackery) and it makes it less popular. As in general online, the less popular a resource is, the higher quality communication it has. You can find the same quality of conversation in low population subreddits too, despite the aforementioned design.

RSS is great and I can't imagine what my life would've been if I were to scan the news feeds on each individual site that I have included in my RSS feed. However, the text rendering feature is rather useless for the resources that are greedy for views, clicks and other analytics, as they simply truncate the body of the article, leaving you no choice but to open the original url to read the rest of it. For my use case in particular, a full title is enough, but I was rather bummed initially that the promised "read all articles rendered in the same style with no distractions that existed on the original website" never worked out.

As an enterprise web developer by day, I find my salvation in my personal open source projects. It's a topic that has bothered me for about a decade and had actually made me quit programming as a hobby a few times.

As someone else had once said, limitation sparks creativity. Without limitations (such as for instance a low number of dependencies, or deliberately simpler code) the activity becomes mundane and overly goal-focused, which ultimately results in poor quality of the outcome.

I personally found myself greatly improve the quality of all my activities in life by imposing "challenging" limitations on them. Though surely it's not an approach for everyone.

Never implied that they did. However there are several common mild conditions to which the only option you'll get is removing them. For instance, a single gallbladder stone (instead of trying to dissolve it) or a mild state of appendicitis (the body can manage).

I'm using it every day. I wish you could turn off title truncating, as my style of using the app is to skim through the feeds and only click the interesting articles. Also it would be nice to be able to filter out future items from the feeds, as some feeds use future dates as a way to schedule or announce something, and I would like to see just the immediate news. If it weren't for these two points, I'd say a 10/10 app.
