This happens all the time on HN. Before opening this thread, I was expecting that the top comment would be 100% positive about the product or its competitor, and one of the top replies would be exactly the opposite, and sure enough...

I don't know why it is. It's honestly a bit disappointing that the most upvoted comments often have the least nuance.
