Hacker News is not a place for "reactions" - it's a place to have thoughtful discussions about interesting and weird things (and startups). Toplevel comment added negative value to Hacker News (as I now have to put up with it being the top comment thread in what was otherwise a mildly interesting comment section) and was an emotional knee-jerk reaction that broke this section of the guidelines: > Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community. It would be nice if we could keep this kind of low-effort, Facebook-esque fluff out of Hacker News.
