That's fair enough, although if you're looking for a non-technical partner it places a barrier in their way. Having a partially obscured contact address in your HN profile would be significantly simpler for a non-technical person trying to get in touch, and would seem reasonably spam resistant.
But that's your choice, and all I was doing was trying to point out something you might not of thought of. I, for one, don't have a Reddit account, and have absolutely no interest in acquiring one.
- beeboop 10y agoI appreciate the thought. As a note, I didn't downvote you (and couldn't, it doesn't allow it on children of one's parent comment)
- CarolineW 10y agoNot a problem - but thanks for saying. I've given up caring about the down-votes. I often give a terse reply, thinking the implications are obvious, and then get down-votes until I explain my comment in extreme detail, at which point they are often reversed. I need to learn that people sometimes need things spelled out in full. It's happening again here. That all sounds a bit harsh, but I'll let it stand. It's probably just a consequence of people being busy.
- tixocloud 10y agoAgree with this point. It's one thing I learned about trying to approach non-tech folks.
