I mean, it's called "Hacker News" but it's been steeped in Silicon Valley startup and corporate culture since it was called "Startup News." I don't think we're all hypocrites, but Hacker News is "serious business" to a lot of people, which means politics, game theory and virtue signaling your hipness and relevance to potential employers and investors.
A lot of people are here for the hustle, and don't consider projects to be worth their time (or even worthy of being posted) unless they seem to be innovative enough to be disruptive. It's unfortunate that Show HN has become Product Hunt lite for a lot of people, but that's probably unavoidable.
