Thanks for taking the time to answer! > Secondly, your post getting flagged probably doesn't indicate that HN is "losing its soul". My assumptions are possibly entirely incorrect and this is why I'm asking. Stack Overflow gives some hints as to why a question is closed. Here, I have nothing and I can only compare between the few threads about reaching Github stars milestones and my own thread on the same topic. > I'm guessing that there was some difference between your original post and the ones you're comparing it to that is causing it to be perceived badly. This is what I would be genuinely interested to understand, what did I do wrong and why is it badly perceived?
