I find the topics that are most likely to generate "heated" discussion tend to be emotional topics, but also they're more broadly important to society and just more interesting to discuss. That's why I tend to browse in /active[1]. Some JSON parsing command line toolkit re-written in Rust [4 comments]? Yawn..

I imagine people come here preceisly because they are that niche that wants to deep dive into those specific technical topics. I wouldn't be surprised if a topic like that could get 100 comments here and barely get a dozen comments on reddit/4chan/etc.

current active example:

The general topic is interesing, but the actual link and "literature" is well... a technical document for IOS developers.
