I wanted to see if there had been any visible decrease in quality. Doesn't look like it. There's surprisingly little difference between this and the regular frontpage.

I'm not sure if this measure means much... with no downvotes, if quality goes down, "classic users" will simply vote less often. That would be a decently interesting statistic: (page views)/(story votes) over the lifetime of older accounts. Not sure if that data is still available, though.

But it seems as if the new users vote on similar things as the old users, that is the interesting thing?

Although it might be fun to create HN/postmodern where only votes from accounts less than a year old are counted, and compare that to classic?
