Interesting, I haven’t heard of this before. It seems like to create an account to you an invite?

  You can ask around, I'm sure someone will be kind enough to send you one. I've personally never received one but I would like one

    One issue with lobste.rs invites is they are a mechanism to vouch for a person. Whoever invited you will show up in your public profile. So there’s a reputation risk if you invite who later gets a lot of negative attention. (Which is why I’ve yet to invite anyone.) Edit: Here is the text for that. Invitations are unlimited, but persons you invite will be associated with your account in the user tree and you may be responsible for them if they cause problems. Please use your discretion when inviting persons you don't personally know.

      Guess I wouldn't want to be responsible for an internet stranger's defamation. I'll keep shit posting on HN
