Why is this HN front-page worthy?

  The wheel was always an interesting invention

  Because people upvoted it and that's how HN works.

  Why is this HN comment-section worthy?
• tenebrisalietum 7y ago
  - Many HN users are programmers or work in other tech jobs. - Many HN users use Slack at this job or have interacted with someone who does. - Many HN users hate how Slack is an Electron app that consumes too many resources for the simple functions it performs. - Many HN users follow app trends, including the fact everything is adding a dark mode lately. These four reasons are why this would make it to the HN front page.

    5th: I've wanted dark mode in slack for a long time and would not have heard about it without this post.

      Same here. My eyes are so happy.
