What websites (other than HN) do you visit to read the comments?

Besides Reddit...

thedrive.com - They post both auto, and military related news (called The War Zone). The military blog is actually quite good, and in between the trolls and loud voices there are actually some very thoughtful and sometimes very informed users who comment. I like how thorough the posts are, and the authors will also comment/reply to users.

I used to frequent autoblog.com, but ownership changed (years ago), and they nuked the comments.

electrek.co - much lower quality, but sometimes the comments are fun to read because I enjoy seeing how heated people get about electric vehicles, especially Tesla.

I can't wait to see other hackers' responses! Aside from HN, I have curated multireddits (yeah, I'll be pretty mainstream in this thread). In order to create them according to my needs, I browsed r/DepthHub; investigated the most popular and the least ones; subscribed to the ones I found the most interesting (either because of topic, or how the topic is framed) and then trimmed these copied multis to keep only the the subs that I liked.
