There actually IS a subreddit, of sorts, for some of these kinds of posts. /r/startup(s) - I can't quite recall if it was singular or plural. It's a pretty barren subreddit, however. I never noticed a whole lot of new material going through there, so I stopped checking it. Also, completely makes sense to do this outside of something like a Reddit, which already has an established community and sense of policy. Doing his own project, his stated reasons aside, gives PG the ability to set whatever tone he thinks is appropriate for the direction of the site. While that may not have been his original intention, I'm sure it's come in handy for him more than once. Plus, it's fun to build new things from scratch and see if they "stick"
