Ask HN: If you write release notes, what stops you from being specific?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49367131Slack's release notes (https://slack.com/release-notes) are mostly "Bug fixes and performance improvements." or something trying too hard to be funny.If you write release notes for software with a lot of users: what makes you go generic?

Ask HN: Any Curated Forum Directories?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49366691Does anyone know any curated forum directories? Forums like in the early 2000s. Places that aren't owned and governed by some corporate overlord. Places with genuine interaction rather than senseless ragebait and "content" designed to generate likes and shares. Places that aren't merely echo-chambers.
