I mean, I guess I can copy a bunch of unverified AskReddit thread responses, make a website, mix in some javascript, and get a bunch of news.ycombinator karma?

Like if OP had gone back and interviewed some of these people and got some validation they are who they say they are, sure.
- yaas 7y agoValidation is something that will likely happen in the future. But I also think anonymity is important as well. So figuring out that balance is key. You're right I should have tried to corroborate the Reddit users' stories. Sorry about that. However, many stories on the site are corroborated and will be going forward.
