一句话：通过访谈与调查 Reddit 和 Hacker News 开发者，揭示其知识分享动机、内容类型与治理挑战。
论文关注开发者如何借助 Reddit、Hacker News 等现代新闻聚合器跟踪技术动态并参与社区。作者对 Reddit 编程子版块开发者进行访谈和问卷调查，并分析 Reddit 与 Hacker News 的帖子样本，归纳了被分享内容的类型，以及开发者发布、分享、讨论、评价和聚合知识的动机。研究还揭示了在内容审核与参与者行为管理方面的挑战。作者希望这些发现能改进开发者的使用实践、指导工具设计，并为研究开发者实践社区提供参考。
Many developers rely on modern news aggregator sites such as Reddit and Hacker News to stay up to date with the latest technological developments and trends. In order to understand what motivates developers to contribute, what kind of content is shared, and how knowledge is shaped by the community, we interviewed and surveyed developers that participate on the Reddit programming subreddit and we analyzed a sample of posts on both Reddit and Hacker News. We learned what kind of content is shared in these websites and developer motivations for posting, sharing, discussing, evaluating, and aggregating knowledge on these aggregators, while revealing challenges developers face in terms of how content and participant behavior is moderated. Our insights aim to improve the practices developers follow when using news aggregators, as well as guide tool makers on how to improve their tools. Our findings are also relevant to researchers that study developer communities of practice.
