"Hate" seems a bit harsh. I started out by saying how much I love everything about the project.
If it's not intended to gain mass adoption, then that's fine. I see from some comments that it was started as a way to keep the original maker's mind busy during recovery. I respect that. It doesn't HAVE to be about gaining market share. But when I see a really cool project, it's hard not to immediately look at what would prevent me from using it or what might prevent it from gaining mass adoption.
To your point about being annoyed by seeing this on hacker news... you do realize this is a forum maintained by a VC firm, right? This is kinda the place for discussing how new ideas in tech can grow and be disruptive to the market. I'm not saying that's the only thing we can discuss, but it seems weird of you to hate it when this topic comes up. It's an underlying subtext to everything on HN. Am I wrong?
