I've followed HN over the last few weeks and there are literally hundreds of comments and posts from people being negative about Musk and Twitter (since it got taken over by Musk).
Barely anything about Holmes.
Amazon lays off 10,000 workers. Not a peep from HN. Musk's Twitter lays off less than 10,000 workers. Massive angst on HN.
Holmes has not really been in the _news_ (the "N" of "HN") in the last few weeks, until this event which has attracted hundreds of posts.
Musk, by contrast, has done lots of newsworthy things in the last few weeks.
Such an attitude is like being surprised that people talk about Joe Biden more than George W Bush at the moment - the fact is there is simply more to talk about with the former than the latter.
