Call me cynical but that piece reads like an ad. Normally you see this sort of articles when an entity is trying to raise it's profile for some reason. Maybe a funding round coming up, asset sale, IPO, etc.

I didn't think it was very ad-like. If Anna Wiener were trying to boost the profile of HN then she probably wouldn't have included all those random examples of "toxic" comments and political discussions that she disagrees with.

It was certainly positive toward the moderators, but not the site as a whole.
