Hacker News.love – 22 projects Hacker News didn't love

Now do one for all the projects with the same kind of comments that ultimately didn't work.

(Also looking forward to see my comment on that site when it IPO's for billions)

BrandonM is never going to live down that very fedora-wearing comment in regards to Dropbox...

i love how half the comments are literally doubling down and simultaneously angrily complaining about auto-scroll. hacker news has become worse than mid 2000s irc.

i have a few qualms with this app...

I "don't love" this. Seems very low effort and lacking any basic nuance.

well, that was awkward. that said, some I didn't love some I absolutely did. Is this fair?

At a glance, most of them remain bad ideas.

Try to talk about noscript/basic (x)html browser interoperability on HN, namely the web without the engines from the whatng cartel.

You'll see...

If you have enough comments on literally ANY project, you will be able to say Reddit didn't love it, or Twitter didn't love it, or Hackernews didn't love it.

By that metric, X didn't love any project either, neither did Reddit.

You could also just as easily say Reddit loved all these projects and Hackernews loved all these projects.

That is, you can cherry pick positive comments about OpenClaw just as easily as you can cherry pick negative comments. Guess what, that's just how people work.

I still hate 15 out of these 22 things for the company owning them, the UX or base promise, or the tech itself.

Meh, I still hate at least half of those products/companies...

The scroll feels like reading a book on the wind.
