Does hackernews act like publisher and doesn't want the responsibilities that come with it?
Yes - they do act like publisher. There is even editorial guide called "guidelines". They will remove things they don't want.

And no - hackernews should not bear the responsibility for whatever we decide to write here, unless it's unlawful.
But I agree on "own your own platform".
- MangoCoffee 6y ago"own your own platform" - that we can all agree on.
- levosmetalo 6y agoDoes that mean we should be writing comments on own platform, and just put links here instead of commenting on HN?
- Isinlor 6y agoHackernews is not really a platform for building a brand. We have no tools to follow specific people. I don't even care that much if you are the original person I was replaying to or not ;) . We are all random strangers to each other. But if you have something substantial to say and want to put the effort, then write a blog post, build your own brand and own it.
