i'm bothering to read it! whether or not it's better, though....
without spoiling it for you, there was a good update maybe a month or two back that hit pretty hard for alpha kid enjoyers (it's me! i'm the alpha kid enjoyers.) i definitely think it's getting better in terms of characterization. the art is also really good, but i think that one goes without saying.
that being said, there's still distance to be travelled that i think leaves it yet to be determined whether or not its worth reading as a whole, you know? i have no idea how you can recover post-canon from where it left off. there's a few calls towards the memes and shitposting of the modern day that (in my opinion) feel shoe-horned in and fall flat, too, but a lot of other people found them fun, so maybe i'm just a killjoy? i have personally noticed that hs:bc seems to be more popular with the newer fans, though i have no idea what that means.
but i guess to answer your question; it has short enough, sparse enough updates that i think it's worth tagging along for the ride merely for the sake of curiosity, but i wouldn't set my expectations too high. it is homestuck, after all!
edit: unsure if it's interesting, per se. iirc, there's been like, two plot important things that happened? blargh
