I think the answer to this is... go set up your our LLM News web site and build a community. I really love HN but I wanted more retro computing and gaming news so I created by own site (https://twostopbits.com/) using the HN source code. It's not hard. Go build the thing you want and moderate it.

I've been in various online communities for over 35 years and I can tell you that by far the best moderated and longest successfully running community is HN (for a while The Well was amazing).

Does the source code include moderating tools, or is it just a bare bones aggregator with a default ranking algo?

There are moderation tools. I can do things like kill a story, ban a domain, ban a user, alter the score on a story, mark a story as dead, lock a story so no one else can edit it, see how many sock puppets voted for the story, edit any aspect of a story.

I modified the default source to have a concept of tags on a story because I wanted people to be able to filter stories by their areas of interest (e.g. everything Commodore 64: https://twostopbits.com/tag?q=c64). All my changes are open and here: https://github.com/jgrahamc/twostopbits
