- karolsputo 6y agoFirst mock that showed up shortly after Hey’s introduction was funny, I have to admit that even as a user. Not sure if it did fit on HN but whatever. But this is not only low effort, but what’s there to discuss? Is it really that interesting?
- hartator 6y agoIs anything interesting?
- unmole 6y agoDo you have a link?

- jen729w 6y agoYou must be fun at parties.
- echelon 6y agoThis is pretty great. I think DHH will get a kick out of it. My favorite parody site made fun of web frameworks and called them "crystal node grunt gems for ninjas". The whole website was genius, but I can't seem to find it anymore. :( Does anybody else have any more parody sites? (Or know the one I'm referring to?)

- CodinM 6y agoJokes on you, I really wanted an email.
- johnnyAghands 6y agoI'm actually sad I can't really get a heyyyyyyyyyyyy email.
- neurostimulant 6y agojust register your own domain with varying amount of Ys. At this point there is no meaningful difference between 12 Ys and 13 Ys.
- johnnyAghands 6y agoI am now the proud owner pv@heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.com. Looks like I was a bit slow 17ys!
- neurostimulant 6y agoHaha I wonder if basecamp people would get mad and start throwing out cease and desist letters once a bunch of people start using variation of heyyyyyy...yy.com domains for their email addresses.
- hhjinks 6y agoAre you kidding? Nobody will take you seriously if you try to pass the 13 y hey off as the 12 y hey. How can anyone trust you when they can't even trust the domain of your email?
- Cthulhu_ 6y agoCan you still get a goatse e-mail address though?

- Crazyontap 6y agoHeyy anyone got an invite code to share please?
- runawaybottle 6y agoSure, please explain your life to me and amuse me in some way, and I’ll send you an invite.
- hellofunk 6y agoEnjoyable to see these mockery sites. The original Hey marketing was just asking to get mocked. Hopefully they take it in good spirit. The lesson learned I think is, don’t act like God unless you want to get mocked for it.
- deleted 6y ago[deleted]
- 1123581321 6y agoI like this parody, but I don’t understand what you are saying about Hey’s original marketing. What’s particularly arrogant about product designers saying they’ve identified and solved a problem? Here’s what they originally put up, for reference: http://web.archive.org/web/20200207101953/https://www.hey.com/ http://web.archive.org/web/20200207101953/https://www.hey.co...
- yakshaving_jgt 6y agoTo be honest, I think that landing page is great. HN people will get mad when a landing page is not just words on a page, but will also get mad when it is.
- WA 6y agoMy biggest gripe about Hey is that it’s marketed as an email client, but it’s actually a proprietary database you get access to through something that looks like an email address. I’m exaggerating a bit. But I don’t understand why they built a service and not a client. For me, email is about being not locked into a specific client. And Hey requires a separate client than the one for my existing email addresses.
- hrktb 6y agoI see Hey marketing as "Email" more than a client or an app. Yes, it's a weird positioning, but to be fair it's also a weird service. They're not about better managing your existing inbox, and I also think completely changing the management of a third party email services while staying within the standards is a lost battle. Hey doesn't solve my issues with email either, but I am sympathic to people trying to rebuild an experience beyond what existing clients can do.
- hereisdx 6y ago:'( Got Rick Rolled :'(
- kebman 6y agoOk you got me xD A great example of this silly thing called social engineering.
- hunter-2 6y agoRickrolling is no longer fun with a pre-roll ad
- godelski 6y agoFirst you need to type in your password you can go hunter2 my hunter2-ing hunter2.
- eindiran 6y agoInstall an adblocker so you can still be rickrolled like old times.
- carlhjerpe 6y agoThis is the sole reason for me to keep uBlock installed.
- system2 6y agoI didn't know people without adblockers existed.
- askvictor 6y agoYou'd think youtube would be onto this, as a service to the community...
- anonu 6y agoThis stuff is better on Reddit
- jwilber 6y agoAnytime I see comments referencing “gO To rEdDiT” I can’t help but sigh at the hypocrisy. Your comment adds nothing to the thread and only reduces overall discussion quality further. What do you hope to gain from such a comment? To break the chain I’ll say two things: 1. The satire is on point. The original hey.com intro felt pretentious with it’s ridiculous, “Email is broken. Come join our invite only $xxx/month email instead” story. 2. Obviously enough HN users identified enough to upvote the post.
- DangitBobby 6y ago> Anytime I see comments referencing “gO To rEdDiT” I can’t help but sigh at the hypocrisy. Your comment adds nothing to the thread and only reduces overall discussion quality further. This is completely wrong. If Reddit sucks, and people are making HN like Reddit with low effort content, then what recourse do we have other than to say so? Or should we just let HN turn into another low effort shit content site? You can disagree with whether or not this content sucks all you want, but again, the sentiment is totally off base.
- HenryBemis 6y agoWe all work enough hours per day being super serious. I was auditing a mega big bank ones (top5), talking to the head of their PMO, and he offered that we sit in some comfy chairs (armchairs) instead of the typical office chairs. Then I said with a "Spanish Inquisition" voice "put him in the comfy chair" and the guy laughed so hard he was drooling. Best-pre-closing-meeting-ever. Others were just staring at use (probably have never seen this magnificent piece of TV). I take that these witty comments are a similar thing to this serious and thought-provoking forum. All in good spirit with high grade and good quality (I like me some Monty Python humor).

- mrpigeonpants 6y agoSo psyched! Had to leave my billing details in the comments of the reserve page. Fingers crossed.
- thesephist 6y agoHey all :) creator here (and yes, you can reach me at linus@heyyyyyyyyyyyy.com). Was talking with a friend last night and I bought this domain on a whim because I thought it would be funny. And then spent a couple hours making this landing page and it's since turned into this elaborate joke. Hope it added something to your day~ haha
- read_if_gay_ 6y agoI actually love this type of design. Did you have any inspirations? Any frameworks used?
- thesephist 6y agoHey, thanks! I used a CSS library [0] I wrote myself last year that I use for a bunch of other projects of mine, most famously lyrics.rip [1] and free.linus.zone (my free-busy calendar I wrote myself) [2]. It gives the site the "faux-3D" aesthetic.

- read_if_gay_ 6y agoThat's a really cool framework. Good job and thanks for sharing.
- packetlost 6y agoI love the design! I might end up using it on some of my own projects!
- LordAtlas 6y agoIf I may make a suggestion, redirect the Rickroll link through a "/reserve" link on your site so it's not immediately obvious on mouse hover.

- steventey 6y agoThis is fucking comedy gold, absolutely brilliant. Signed up for my heyyyyyyyyyyyy.com email account and I'm thrilled to find out that I'm user #15!!! My life is officially complete.
- rudiv 6y agoAh, so facetious comments are beyond the pale but not low-effort facetious links.
- smitty1e 6y agoI, for one, miss uselessaccount.com and feel that this product fills an important niche.
- StephenAshmore 6y agoI expected it would link to this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32FB-gYr49Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32FB-gYr49Y instead of a rick roll! Nice one.
- saagarjha 6y agoThere used to be a website for that, but it looks like the domain registration expired :(
- runawaybottle 6y agoMost startups on HN would be far more honest if they just came full circle and made an email app like hey.com. But anyway, looking forward to the Microsoft Word, errr, Notion clones in the coming months.
- corobo 6y agoDon’t forget my new business that lets you make websites from Google sheets for some reason .. what do you mean they revoked our API key?

- saagarjha 6y agoSadly it’s now a parked domain :(
- cronin101 6y agoI've actually been trying to remember the URL to this website on and off for the last six years (note to self, 8 'e's), so thanks for scratching that itch.
- neom 6y agoWhat, pray tell, is intellectually stimulating or useful to curiosity about this website?
- dvtrn 6y agoFor me it’s watching all the responses from the likes of people who don’t get the satire Kvetching right here in the comments.

- lain98 6y agoSuggestion: Rick roll plays in the background 3 seconds after opening the page.

- PoissonVache 6y agoHi, I can't register. Each time I click, a weird old video opens. Can someone help me ? I tried to contact the creator of the site to tell him that he messed up with his register link.
- codeulike 6y agoYes this is a serious bug. Looks like a javascript event bubbling problem to do with the button - anyone got any insights?
- gitgud 6y agoAfter a thorough dive into the source code, it seems to be an issue with click events with the attribute 'rick', rolling off the JS call-stack incorrectly.

- CraneWorm 6y agoI thought that was going to be: https://heeeeeeeey.com/ https://heeeeeeeey.com/, and wondered what it's doing at HN's top... [Content Warning: contains audio, loops, might be annoying, rip your browser history]
- AnonHP 6y agoQuite funny, but I think it needs to take a bigger dig on hey.com's pricing and offering. > $100 for each "y" Ah, flipping hey.com's model of charging more for shorter addresses. Genius! > So expensive, you'll never forget to cancel This should be right at the top! And it applies to hey.com too (for many people)! :)
- kobayashimaru 6y agoRace to the end of the page.....
- sneak 6y agoDoes anyone remember the exact domain for that joke website that had the picture of the wire spring doorstopper that would just play the BOINGGGGG sound when you clicked on it? It was something like boinnnnnngggggg.com but I can’t remember it or find it in my old bookmarks.
- athenot 6y agoThat's the downside with a name like that. It's not very memorable. Clearly they should have removed the vowels to make it easy to remember and named it bnnnnnngggggg.com :) Sarcasm aside, if you do end up finding it, post here: that sounds like a hilarious one.
- techwarrior 6y agoThe fact that hey.com ignored the precedent of ignoring periods within emails will make hey.com emails rife with fraud when they open up. Pretending phishing and email phishing doesn't exist won't make it go away. And I certainly won't spend 2x the amount for an email subscription to reserve my first.last@hey.com vs. firstlast@hey.com Setting email back 10 years, 1 step at a time
- euske 6y ago[Reserve Now] (31/200 left in stock) Considering the activity of HN users, I found these numbers highly suspicious. (But a good try anyway.) I wonder what is the best number for tempting a click. Maybe you should increase these as the site popularity grows?
- abhayhegde 6y agoNow that the post has more than 500+ upvotes, better give a number beyond 1000 for a conservative and believable value. I almost felt it was not true before clicking it, but clicked any wa. :)
- marcosdumay 6y ago> I found these numbers highly suspicious You can try reserving one and seeing if the number decreases.

- asimpletune 6y agoAds on YouTube broke Rick rolling.
- PascLeRasc 6y agoWhile we're here, can anyone who's been using Hey for a little while share how it's been? I did the trial and liked it, but it felt a little bit micromanagey and I just didn't know if it'd get better after changing all my accounts and using the screener for a month or more.
- bjtitus 6y agoA month or so in and it's still a lot of micromanaging. My biggest sticking point is that I'm unsure of which email address may be used for important notifications and the like so I'm hesitant to screen things out a lot of the time unless they are basically spam.
- PascLeRasc 6y agoOh yeah, that was a problem I had. My health insurance uses the same email to send marketing spam as they do to send test results, so I couldn't screen them out. Maybe they'll add some IF fields on the subject line in the future.
- MorganGallant 6y agoOne perk of being friends with Linus is that he gives you email addresses... Send memes to mg@heyyyyyyyyyyyy.com (this actually works)!
