i guess that makes sense

we need an environment where new people can get these stories faster

i mean a place where stories are repeated and a different place where new stories are put up

that makes things interesting as well i guess

If I've seen it already and don't want to discuss it more, I just don't click or comment on it.

Sometimes I want to click something I've already read and see what other interesting comments are posted.

Sure, but why not HN of all places? Things get re-posted here all the time when they are relevant again. I'm not new by any means but I didn't know this.
