It's trying to grow in the sense that we want new users. Otherwise it will get stale. I fear that's already happening.

Is there data or otherwise that HN is growing stale? Or more of a general vibe
I mean this in the spirit of genuine curiosity: what staleness risk is there given the massive breadth of experience the existing userbase already has?
We need a healthy influx of younger users in addition to retaining older ones.
It remains an unsolved problem! For example, Facebook's "solution" was to buy Instagram.

Mortality.
Indeed.
